BRINGING JOY TO ESOL LEARNERS

An ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) work booklet and wellbeing guide designed by Talk English volunteers at Fircroft College of Adult Education in Birmingham has so far helped to engage over 300 hard to reach communities during COVID-19.

Thanks to the generosity of project manager Neena Cheuhan, permission has been given for us to distribute locally to anyone who feels they may benefit during these challenging times.

Feel free to download the PDF's below. We can also send print copies out upon request.
