What to expect:
If you would like to enroll in our English classes, please fill out the registration form. After you register, you will receive additional information about testing. All new students will be required to complete a placement test before beginning testing.
During the testing process, you will take an online English language test and complete a short interview with program staff to help us decide which class will best meet your needs. We will let you know when your class will start meeting and what technology you will need to access your class.
