The parent is a child’s first teacher in life. ESL for Families is a Family Literacy Program that teaches English to both parents and their children. Families participate in real-life situations that take place at schools, doctors’ offices, banks, department of motor vehicle offices, and courthouses, among others. The goal is to provide parents and their children with English language skills to bond as a family, reduce language barriers, build confidence, and support each other through life.
ESL for Families Program Principles:
Learning together brings families together
Learning takes place at school and at home
Interactive literacy activities supplement learning
Parents with increased ability to communicate will become more involved at school
Instruction takes place at Housatonic Community College
