Information Session for Adult English Learners

This canceled information session is for adult English-language learners seeking guidance, support, and opportunities to practice. A Boston Public Library instructor would have provided an informal opportunity to learn how to register for English and workforce classes, discover conversation-practice groups, and ask about local resources and programs. It was intended as an information and resource session rather than a formal English class.

The page also directs learners to literacy resources, Boston’s Adult Literacy Initiative, the Massachusetts Adult Education Help Desk, Mango Languages online learning software for library-card holders, and information about obtaining a library card.
