We offer 5 different levels of classes totaling 600 hours of study (120 hours per level). Our ESOL classes focus on teaching students one skill at a time: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Each student receives a textbook, workbook, and additional study materials produced in-house.
The SED Center is the only nonprofit provider of ESOL classes in the District that has an in-house 13-hour training for all teachers and a 6-hour student orientation that includes an introduction to the classes and a thorough system for placing students in the correct level. All students are required to take the CASAS assessment test in order to advance to the next level. Students choose between weekday, weeknight and weekend classes taught by experienced instructors. GED Preparation and Computer TrainingOur GED preparation is offered as a 3-level course that helps students prepare to take the DC GED exam successfully.
Our computer skills program provides skill-based classes and allows learners to advance from keyboarding to word-processing to basic digital-imaging in one year. |
