Tutors and students alike enjoy getting to know about each other’s countries and culture. Meetings sometimes include tasting dishes prepared by students from their native country!

Our diverse community is home to many people from other countries. The literacy council has welcomed students from countries such as Argentina, China, the Czech Republic, Ethiopia, Finland, Greece, India, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Pakistan, Russia and Viet Nam.
Many of CLC’s adult ELL students have completed high school and college in their homeland and strive to quickly learn our language. To assist them in learning to speak, read and write English, students are assigned to native English speaking tutors who work with them one-on-one or in small classes.
Because the techniques used to teach English are the same regardless of the student’s native tongue, classes will often include students differing national backgrounds. |
