PICS in partnership with KWANTLEN POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY in Surrey is offering Free English language classes for newcomers, Canadian citizens and work permit holders. Classes run every Monday and Tuesday morning from 10 am to 12 pm. Participants learn about the Canadian work culture such as resume writing, cover letter, job search, interview skills and work expectations through English. Our qualified teacher, Gita who is certified to teach English as a Second Language and is highly experienced, entices students to practice English communication while working in pairs or group activities. Hands-on computer activities, visits to the WorkBC centre and presentations by guest speakers are part of the curriculum. Daily news events and other topics of interest to the students are part of the daily routine.
PICS feel that it is crucial that there are enough opportunities for workers to learn the English Language to give them a better foothold in the job market. Not every worker in the country can be a native speaker of English, but with the right support, workers can have the right skill set in order to succeed with a job.
Free on-site childcare is available for students with children.
Please call Eva Touzard at 604 596-7722 ext. 138 to register.
Space is limited.
