NIACC To Offer ESL Classes in Hampton
North Iowa Area Community College (NIACC) is excited to partner with La Luz Centro Cultural and offer English as a Second Language (ESL) classes in Hampton. This program is specifically designed for adults 18 and older whose first language is not English, aiming to improve their speaking, reading, writing, and listening skills in a supportive, friendly environment.
An open house and required orientation will be held on Tuesday, January 14 from 5-8pm at La Luz Centro Cultural, located at 7 2nd Ave NE in Hampton. Classes will continue to meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5-8pm at La Luz.
These sessions are structured to cater to various proficiency levels, from beginners to more advanced learners, ensuring that each participant can learn at a pace that suits them best. Class sessions are eight weeks and attendance is mandatory. Students continue to enroll in sessions until they have mastered the English language. The first 12 individuals will be enrolled in the class, if more than 12 people are interested, a waiting list will be started.
“There is a great need for ESL instruction in the Hampton area and we look forward to providing this service in the community,” said Molly Anderegg, Director of Education to Employment at NIACC. “Our goal is to help individuals improve their English skills as well as learn how to navigate additional education, employment, and American culture.”
