ESL 3

ESL 3 is a non-credit, open enrollment course designed for students who already have low beginning reading and writing English skills. Students develop high beginning reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills in their roles as family and community members, workers, and citizens. Students learn to read and interpret basic written instructions, simple charts, schedules, graphs, diagrams, and a basic payroll stub, perform basic calculations, fill out basic forms, write simple notes and satisfy basic survival needs and routine social demands. Extensive development of conversational skills comes through pair and group work.
