Welcome!

The Mélida Anaya Montes English School offers classes to adults 18-years and older with a focus on individuals involved in the social movement, women struggling for their self-determination, and those who are unable to attend other language schools for financial reasons. Classes are maintained at an affordable price with need-based half-scholarships available. We offer all levels of English instruction from beginner to conversational. The school uses a methodology based on communication and participatory techniques. Classroom activities, materials, and discussion include social content.

Classes are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 5:00 - 6:45 pm. Usually classes have between 7-12 students each, for a total of approximately 60 students in every session. On Wednesday evenings we also have special activities, such as potlucks or Article Discussion Group. We hold 4 sessions a year, and each session lasts between 9-10 weeks.

Students' payments cover the price of instruction, materials, graduation expenses, and teacher training. The cost per session is $55. Students must pay at least half on the first day of class, and the other half within 15 days of the start of the session (to account for pay dates). Need-based scholarships are available.

Dates for 2017 Sessions:

• Jan 6th- March 9th
• March 16th- May 25th
• June 1st- August 17th
• September 7th- November 16th

All teachers are volunteers with an interest in social justice. Most come from other countries, and are usually native English speakers.
