Information Session for Adult English Learners

This informal information session is for adults learning English who want guidance, support, and opportunities to practice. Members of the Boston Public Library’s Literacy Services team will explain how to register for grammar classes, describe free conversation-practice groups, and answer questions about local resources and programs.

The session is intended for information and connections rather than classroom instruction. Attendees can also learn about additional ESOL resources, including citywide adult-literacy programs, the Massachusetts Adult Education Help Desk, Mango Languages online learning software for library cardholders, and how to obtain a library card.
