Glasgow Women’s Library (GWL) holds 2 levels of ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) classes for women.
2021/2022 classes will include online learning as well as learning in the GWL building as follows:
(Full for 2021/2022) Elementary class on Tuesday (at GWL) and Wednesday (online) from 10am to 12noon.
(Full for 2021/2022) Pre-Intermediate class on Thursday (at GWL) and Friday from 10am to 12noon.
Both classes run throughout college term-time and are taught by teachers from Glasgow Clyde College. Classes start in late August/September and run until May/June. Students learn general English, they practice speaking, listening, reading and writing in an informal and friendly group setting. Towards the end of the course the students can take an SQA ESOL unit.
The classes at Glasgow Women’s Library are for women only*. Unfortunately we do not have crèche facilities.
*All women-only events are inclusive of Trans and Intersex women, as well as non-binary and gender fluid people who are comfortable in a space that centres the experience of women.
