Specialties
Our goal at ESL by Design [an adult English-as-a-second-langage school] is for students to have a positive experience living in the U.S., whether they are here temporarily or permanently. Unlike most schools, we design English classes based on the needs of our students so that learning English is practical and enjoyable!
Our class sizes are small and teachers are available to assist students with communication problems they may have outside the classroom. Teachers can come to your workplace for English instruction and create a class that is business-specific.
We take trips to places that our students need to know about as well as points of interest such as museums, art galleries, and the zoo. We also offer specialized class times teaching jewelry-making, cooking and other fun learning experiences.
We also offer private tutoring. See our website: ESLbyDesign.com for more details.
