Mission Statement
The ESU celebrates English as a shared language to foster global understanding and good will by providing educational and cultural opportunities for students, educators, new immigrants, and members.
Description
The ESU, a non-profit, non-political organization. English in Action and the Andrew Romay New immigrant Center are two of many ESU programs.
English in Action (EiA) helps newcomers to the United States gain fluency and confidence in conversational English by pairing them with volunteer tutors for weekly conversation sessions. In addition to practicing the language without the fear of making mistakes, English in Action students learn about life in this country and teach their conversation partners about their own lives, experiences and customs.
The Andrew Romay New Immigrant Center (ARNIC), is a FREE program that helps recent immigrants participate fully in American society. ARNIC members enjoy exclusive access to the Center's events, activities and classes throughout the year.
