Intermediate English




Fridays:  September 9 – October 21
1:15-2:30 pm

This free class at Crowell Public Library is for those who know a bit of English and want to learn more. If you or somebody you know speaks some English and wants to improve, this free six week class will help all participants make progress.  Instructor Richard Bourell will cover vocabulary and basic concepts.  His method is to concentrate on listening and conversation skills so that students can interact in English, building vocabulary and confidence. The class will not dwell on grammar, but will encourage students to learn English through real life situations and dialogs. 

Richard Bourell has been teaching English for almost forty years, locally and globally, and is the author of the Video Language DVD series, and In English, a video and workbook-based ESL series.  He has taught for the Los Angeles Unified School District, the American English Institute in Mexico City, the Richard Lewis School of Languages in Paris, Huntington Park Community Adult School and the ELS Language Center in Los Angeles.  His students have come from all over the globe:  Latin America, the Middle East, Russia, Korea and Japan.  Now Mr. Bourell is reaching out to the community and offering his course for free, a fabulous opportunity for patrons of Crowell Public Library, so don’t miss out.  

Classes take place in the Library’s Barth Community Room from 1:15-2:30 pm on Fridays, beginning September 9th.  Interested learners can register in advance by calling the Library at (626) 300-0777, extension 579.
