Q2 Good morning, I am an immigrant from Nicaragua, for reasons beyond my control, I had to flee my country due to the current socio-political situation. I am in the process of political asylum, therefore it is a necessity for me to learn English correctly to provide a better future for my daughters and my family. I have all the desire to improve myself. Please, if you could give me information about the English as a second language course, I would be infinitely grateful.

To take English as a Second Language (ESL) courses, contact your local elementary school district and ask about adult education offerings. Most school districts will offer ESL classes that you can enroll in. There is also a free website that can help at www.usalearns.com.
