DALLAS

November 2010

I am looking for volunteers who are willing to give about three hours a week (one hour to prepare and two hours instruction time) to teaching adults English one day a week with a minimum commitment of teaching an entire semester.  No teaching experience is necessary and no knowledge of another language is needed.  We use a specific curriculum with an easy-to-use teacher's guide, textbook and workbook with all materials and training provided free of charge.

Under North Dallas Shared Ministries' "umbrella" we are offering two classes four days a week.  From 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays we hold a beginner class and an intermediate class in the Santa Monica Apartments close to the corner of Webbs Chapel and Park Lane.  The classes are held within the apartment complex in the Centro Familiar or Family Center, an apartment that belongs to Christ's Foundry, a Methodist church with an Hispanic ministry.

We are about to end our very first semester which has been quite successful.  We have had around 40 students register with an average of 15 attending regularly.  Currently, we have five teachers who are teaching the two classes four days a week.  Preferably, however, we would have two instructors teaching together in each class to help facilitate our students' learning.
