We offer classes for adults whose first language is not English. Students in beginning classes learn to speak, listen for understanding, read, and write English. Intermediate and advanced students have the opportunity to improve conversation, grammar, pronunciation, reading, and writing.

Winter/spring classes begin Monday, January 6th and continue until May 22nd. However, new students can begin class every week through the end of March. The last day to register for spring classes is March 16th. Most classes are in-person, but there are limited virtual classes for higher level students. Students must be tested prior to beginning class. Once our office receives your application, a staff member will contact you regarding signing up for testing. Testing is available at various locations throughout St. Louis County and will take two days to complete.

Students may sign up online or by calling the AEL office. Call or text 314-415-4940 for more information.
