We are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints!  Some of our teachers are volunteer members from local congregations. Some are missionaries who are 18–21-year-old volunteers for our church who take 1.5-2 years of their lives to leave home and serve those in our area!  And still others are Senior Service Missionaries who volunteer their time to help the people in need.

No! We welcome all faiths and backgrounds to join the ESL classes. All students are welcome to leave before we start our gospel message at the end of class.

Yes. Most of us are from Canada.  Some are from other countries and volunteer to help others learn English.  We have some teachers who speak French, Spanish, Tagalog, or Chinese in addition to English.

All of our EnglishConnect classes are conversation classes. There are no certificates offered.

Because we have very big wait lists of people wanting to enroll, we ask that all students inform their teacher if they cannot make it to a class. If you miss 4 classes a month without notifying your teacher, you will unfortunately lose your seat which will be given to someone on the wait list. You would have to re-enroll in order to continue classes.
