Learn a World Language ~
Expand Your Opportunities
World Language classes can help you realize your
goal of learning a new language without worrying about
grades or big exams. In most languages, all levels are
taught, from beginner to advanced. Not all courses
are offered every semester. The goal of our language
courses is to help you communicate in the language as
quickly as possible. Part of every class is devoted to
conversation practice; grammar is taught to support this
goal of communication. You will be delighted with how
much you are able to say, even after the first class.
