The English Skills Learning Center provides individualized English instruction to adult refugees and immigrants. Our students speak little or no English, and often are not literate in any language. We train and supervise volunteer tutors who then teach our students twice a week. Instruction is provided at times and locations that are convenient for both the tutor and the student.
We currently tutor students from 34 different countries. We are currently working with over 100 tutors to serve close to 300 students in the Salt Lake City area. Our approach focuses on helping our students become better integrated members of American society.
We have operated continuously since 1988, and provide the only free and individualized ESL tutoring program in Salt Lake County, Utah.
