2013 *girls only* English Class

Our english class will run from August, 2012 through April, 2013, on Saturdays at the Project HOPE Art Center. The class is structured for girls and will be taught by a woman instructor from the English in Mind Institute.

Together, we are creating an opportunity for girls of different neighborhoods, backgrounds, education levels and ages to come together and learn a skill that will help them mature into smart young ladies.

The young ladies in the class range across five neighborhoods and span educational, income and resource levels. They are 11 to 22 years old. All incredibly motivated to learn english.
