                Adventures”
          
            We put this here because Disney on Ice is great

            characters from the House of Mouse perform acrobatic feats
            on skates. This year’s show, called “Road Trip Adventures,”
            takes audiences to the locales of recent movies like “Mary
            Poppins Returns,” “Toy Story 4,” “Moana,” and “Frozen,” and
            will also feature popular Disney princesses and classic
            characters like Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Goofy. (Thursday, Feb. 20

                                many years we have had an informal language tutoring program
                                to assist members of our international community 
                              who
                                asked for assistance using the English language in

                                conversational program has always been
                                informal, we have based it upon training
                                held at MBL and WHOI over the years, 
                              and

                              It has ranged from assisting
                                people who think they would like extra

                              What
                                the program is not...is a structured
                                grammar program. There's another program
                                in in Falmouth which is more structured
                                around grammar.  
                            
                              
                              Sometimes
                                we have even assisted more fluent
                                speakers of English who
                                wish to increase their speaking
                                opportunities within the context of
                                their lives, sometimes as informally as
                                having lunch together, or taking a walk
