> *ENGLISH CLASSES and TUTORING in the COMMUNITY*

REGISTRATION FOR
ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE

ST. PATRICK's CHURCH, 511 MAIN STREET, FALMOUTH

registration: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 6:30-8:00 pm

Classes:  at St. Patrick, free, Wednesday, 6:30 – 8:00 pm, start Sept. 11

ALSO

One on One Tutoring:
at United Methodist Church, 270 Gifford St., Falmouth, free
times to be scheduled by teacher and student

September – April

Registration for English as a Second Language (ESL) classes will on 
Wednesday, Sept. 4th, from 6:30 to 8pm at St. Patrick's Church in Falmouth.

They offer levels from beginner to advanced. There is no academic 
credit, but they give a certificate to students who complete a year.  
Some find the certificate useful for further study or work.

Because of high demand experienced last year, they are cooperating with 
John Wesley United Methodist Church in Falmouth to offer additional 
English learning opportunities.  This year they will have teachers to 
tutor students, one-on-one or in small groups, at their church at times 
to be arranged between teacher and student.  That program will also be 
free.  We will have a joint registration.

The program at St. Patrick’s Church is flexible about accepting students 
throughout the year, as long as their English is at a reasonably 
appropriate level for a class in progress (i.e., at midyear not a total 
beginner) and there is still space.

The coordinator of the ESL program is Susan Morrison.  If you have any 
question you can reach Susan at spmorrison4 at comcast.net

*Sustainability the focus of Quahog Festival*

the Oh Boys), local crafts, wine, beer and children’s activities for an 
afternoon of fun in Hyannis. The serious theme this year is 
sustainability, and information will be shared on how to protect Cape

alternatives to plastic. Visitors are welcome to bring lawn chairs and 
blankets. The event benefits local non‐profit organizations and the 
Hyannis Rotary Good Works fund.
