On and off over the past 4 months I’ve been working on a project for our church in Florida’s ESL program. ESL is English as a Second Language training and a very important program in all communities. Volunteers at the church hold FREE classes twice a week that are open to the public – people of all ages, races, and religions. They have several different skill levels that teach everything from basic conversational English to more advanced reading & writing skills. In addition to learning the English language, students learn about American culture something just as important for immigrant wanting to “fit in.”
I spent a couple weeks attending the classes, meeting the students, and photographing them. Just this week I finished a video for the ESL leader to use to recruit volunteers. Our goal was to make it “generic” enough that any ESL program could use it. You can watch the video below, and if you would like a free DVD copy to help promote your ESL program contact me with your name and address.
