Our program is a branch of a larger ESL program for mostly Chinese immigrants in the Chinatown area. Besides studying ESL classes for 8 hours a week, we offer 1-1 tutoring as an extra service. We pair tutors with students that are able to carry on simple conversations in English and you work together to build their conversation skills. This is a great way to build relationships and get connected with the local community!
You can visit our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/PuiTakAdultESLTutoring to get a feel for what tutoring online looked like last term. If you’re interested in learning more, please contact Judy Fairbairn at judyfairbairn@puitak.org.
Both onsite and online tutoring opportunities are now available.

Mission Statement
Pui Tak Center was established by the Chinese Christian Union Church to be a Christian witness to Chinese in Chicago through educational, family and community services.
Description
Pui Tak Center is a church-based community center. Our programs focus on serving the 30,000 Chinese living in the Greater Chinatown community which includes Armour Square (Chinatown), Bridgeport, McKinley Park, Brighton Park, Canaryville, and South Loop communities.
Pui Tak Center has three program departments: Adult Education and Training, Children and Youth, and Community. Through these programs, we impact the lives of over 2,500 people each year. We help people improve their English, get better jobs, become citizens, catch up and excel in school, prepare for college, receive help with daily problems, deal with immigration issues, and adjust to life in the US. We partner with the Chinese Christian Union Church so that many hear the Gospel that gives hope and meaning.
