SUMMARY:ESL Conversation Class - Student Led ~ 1st & 3rd Tuesdays
DESCRIPTION:This is a student-led ESL conversation class.  Students meet every other week to plan the class and class strategies.  Students themselves give presentations and mini-presentations about their country of origin\, first year in the United States\, or anything else of interest to them.  Idioms are discussed.  We also read the newspaper News for You for practice in pronunciation.  We break down into smaller groups to have discussions.  It is a very social time for students to get to know one another and make friendships. \nThe class will meet every first and third Tuesday of the month from 11:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. from September 17 through December 3.  Sometimes students bring in food to share\, but you are allowed to eat in the classroom\, so we suggest that you bring a lunch or snack.  Other times\, we go on field trips especially in the summer. Registration is required.
