Hi everyone,
We had a wonderful 'encuentro' today at the Newman Center at UMASS of people interested in participating in the series of ESL classes C3 is helping to organize. Around 20 people attended--about half the people interested in taking the classes and half interested in teaching, tutoring, providing child care, etc. We had a great lunch of burritos and taquitos, courtesy of Bueno y Sano and La Veracruzana, then conducted an informal assessment, to see where people's English level is at. More than anything though, it was just a way for us all to get together, get to know each other a bit. I gotta tell ya', it was great! Such an awesome group of people--I'm really proud to be a part of it.
If you're interested in learning more, in volunteering in any way, or if you know someone who might want to take the classes, just drop me a line. The classes are due to start March 30th, for eight week sessions, every Sunday, location TBA.
Peace!
