Grant Restores ESL Classes
The Herald News (MA)
SER Jobs for Progress, a non-profit organization that offers opportunities for adults to expand job skills training and education, has received a $20,000 grant to restore an adult basic education class that was cut when financing for the Massachusetts program was reduced. The Verizon Foundation presented SER Jobs with a check at the organization's Fall River, MA office on Wednesday.
I am currently working towards my teacher certification by lateral entry and needed information on the Hispanic aspect of education. Our ESL teacher at my elementary school directed me to our school's ELL website. You are a link off that page. What a world of information I found!!! I ended up reading more than I needed to know, saved some of the books for children for my future reference, and kept a few other things as resources for me for later on. I was so impressed that I wanted to complement you on how easy to use yet in-depth your site is. I will check here often just to see what you have; very, very, very impressive!! Thanks so much!
