English Language Learner, GED, and Children's Literacy
Neighborhood House provides new opportunities and options for the immigrant, refugee and native English speaking populations. Our programs focus on four main components: English Language Learner (ELL), General Education Development (GED), and Children's Literacy with a variety of supplemental programs that strive to reinforce and support the learning goals of our participants. All of our courses are taught by both paid and volunteer teachers and are guided by our state recognized, learner-centered curricula.
