Learn ESL English in the Library

The growth in ESL offerings at libraries in response to a growing demand over the past 15 to 20 years -- and a concurrent decline in traditional adult literacy programs is a nationwide trend.

At the Framingham Public Library, 260 tutors are matched up with 319 students, with eight-week "Survival English" classes also offered as a stopgap for those who are on the waiting list for tutoring.

The 8 p.m. intermediate English as a Second Language class at Milford Town Library is one of four per week (two for beginners and two for intermediates) offered by the library, which also matches students with tutors for one-to-one instruction and provides learning materials and meeting space for both classes and tutoring sessions.
