English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) classes help non-native English speakers advance their conversational skills and learn more about American culture.
We offer classes in McLean and Reston. We offer six levels of classes, and match each student’s skill level to a class. Read about our class details below.
New and returning students, please register before September 7.

Our ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) classes help non-native English speakers improve and advance their language skills. Some of our students know little or no English; others have studied English in their home country. Many can read and write English but need practice in English conversation. We try to meet the needs of students at all levels.
Instruction includes grammar, pronunciation, reading, and American culture and customs. Part of the reading material and discussions of holidays and traditions may include Christian teaching.
This year, we are offering ESOL classes in McLean and in Reston:
Class Dates: Classes will begin on September 14 (Wednesday) and September 15 (Thursday) and continue weekly through May. Childcare is available for the Wednesday morning class only. NOTE: Classes on Wednesday, Jan. 12 and Thursday, Jan. 13 are canceled. Classes will resume on Wednesday, Jan. 19 and Thursday, Jan. 20.
For new students: New students for the Wednesday morning class at McLean must come to McLean Presbyterian Church at 9:30am on September 7 for verbal testing and placement.
Registration Fee: There is a registration fee of $40, which will cover the cost of the course and includes all teaching materials.
Help international friends in our community to grow in confidence in speaking English by teaching ESOL (English to Speakers of Other Languages). As a teacher, you will work with experienced Capital Pres Family ESOL instructors to walk alongside English language learners in a weekly class section.
No formal training is required – just a willingness to meet with and pray for your students, and help them to take a step forward in their English abilities. To sign up, email Micah Shelton.
Improve your English-speaking ability and grow confidence in conversation!
