Pathway to English

Empowering new Americans to bridge gaps in culture and communication through language learning and civic awareness

In July 2016, was CARECEN and Pathway to Citizenship was excited to launch a new program: Pathway to English. Through Pathway to English, Long Island immigrants in Nassau and Suffolk counties will have access to free English classes at our offices. Each quarter, Pathway to English enrolls approximately 130 students into English classes, starting from Beginner 1 to Intermediate levels.

The Pathway to English program is designed to provide learners with the language and literacy skills they need in order to succeed in their new community. Through improved English skills, students are able to bridge gaps in communication in their everyday activities and navigate new environments. In January 2018, Pathway to English began incorporating an online learning platform through Off 2 Class. So far, it has been a hit! We are excited to see where the future will lead us.
