Many students from abroad struggle to learn English in ''English-as-a-Second-Language'' (ESL) classes. For some, this may be the only place they MUST use English. For most, English is NOT their second language. It is in fact their third, fourth, fifth or more language.
The English Learners Association (ELA) seeks alternative ways for English learners of all ages to get practical English lessons to supplement their formal ESL classes. Many of these alternative methods come through our affiliation with Earth Systems Science, Inc. (ESSI), a community-based educational non-profit.
