FREE (and almost-free) ESL Classes in Austin
Learning a new language is hard. If you have money to devote to learning English, I highly recommend you study where I work! UT ESL is awesome! However, sometimes paying for courses is not possible. Austin provides many free or almost-free opportunities to learn English. Here is an incomplete list. The Austin Public Library has a great list of ESL Classes around town. I will replicate it in part below, with my own commentary, but their list is more complete. UT hosts a free ESL course that is taught by master teachers and practicing teacher interns. They provide a free class that the students can practice teaching, and ESL students can get an excellent, challenging free classes, Monday through Friday from 5:00 - 7:00. Space is very limited, so watch the website or get on the e-mail list for information on how to register. Manos de Cristo provides almost-free ($20/semester) classes with morning and evening schedules. They have computer and citizenship classes too!
