ENGLISH FOR SPEAKERS OF OTHER LANGUAGES 
(ESOL)
Put yourself in the shoes of a newcomer to our shores. Imagine the difficulty seeking
employment, finding a doctor, banking, and shopping when you can't speak or understand the
language. These immigrants, ages 16-80, primarily of Asian, Eastern European and Hispanic
dissent, face this challenge on a daily basis. They need assistance assimilating to our
language and culture.
