The Erindale Alliance Church's ESL Class was started in the year 2000, by Joann and Wayne Brimner, to help people whose English is not their first language, especially international students, visiting scholars and immigrants.
The class teaches language and the Holy Bible, using one-to-one interactive teaching method. The language part includes practical dialog (answering phone call, see a doctor, banking, etc.), pronunciation (English vowel and consonant sounds), intonation, and grammar. The Holy Bible part includes Bible reading, Bible stories, Christianity, Christian culture and holidays. Students’ language skills are improved by kind native speakers correcting your pronunciation, repeating words/sentences after native speakers, and listening to, conversing and discussing with native speakers.
All the teachers and helpers, (individuals work with students one to one), are volunteering native English speakers. They help the students, not only by teaching English, but in daily life with their love. Wonderful relationships have been built between students and helpers over the years. Beyond the regular class, there are many social activities organized to help students learn about Canadian culture and build friendships as well. Love has made the class a big family and is attracting more and more people to join.
You are invited to come too! We continue this class during the summer even though the other classes are taking a break until September.
Although the ESL class is a part of the church program, students’ beliefs and freedom of choice are always treated with respect.
Watter Cao and Tong Zhu.
