The Classes
During each ESL class period we work on speaking and listening skills with a secondary focus on reading and writing. Becoming comfortable in the US culture, the Wisconsin environment, and Watertown as their home is also an important element of our curriculum. How to use the fine local library, what the holidays are about, and the importance of relationships with schools, employers, and living are essential subjects in class. Dealing with winter the first year is a must, too.
Sometimes we are honored with someone who is working towards citizenship so we cover the civics of our government both national and local. Bilingual/bicultural is always the goal. Cultures of origin are honored as are the American and local cultures.
St. Paul's is a church that pursues a strong mission of building relations with those whose lives touch ours. We intend to teach language skills and acculturate our learners so that they can live here successfully.
