Program Description

The YWCA Elgin offers English as a Second Language Classes (ESL) to adults that want to improve their English. Our classes include the spoken language, writing, use of computers and tablets, group activities involving public issues, job readiness, basic health education, and information about how to manage money. The YWCA Elgin makes learning fun! During the school year students go on field trips, play games, enjoy hands on activities, and even throw parties.

Once students graduate to the higher levels they are able to take specialized courses that will help them prepare for their future.
