ESOL: We have been able to increase the types of services we offer our students

ByAdmin 01/09/202025/05/2021

As you may know, our new Outreach Director, Laura Bernhein, is also spending a few hours each week assisting Erin in the ESOL program. As a result of the added staff time, we have been able to increase the types of services we offer our students.

Ahead of the anticipated fee increase for naturalization applications, we helped several students and some of their family members fill out and submit their application forms. Laura also conferred with a schoolteacher alongside an LCBC student whose young daughter was having trouble getting connected with her online classroom and helped another LCBC student navigate a hospital billing system in order to get control of her bills.

We’re excited to grow the capacity of our program to continue fulfilling our primary mission – language teaching for personal empowerment – and also help to meet some of our students’ additional language-related needs.
