Register for Free Summer Reading Classes

Intermediate ESL students who have trouble reading English are invited to enroll in free reading classes offered through the Alliance for Lifelong Learning at Oakton Community College. Classes are funded by the Illinois Community College Board, the Office of the Secretary of State, and the Illinois State Library.

The purpose of these free sessions is to develop better English skills for personal or employment purposes. These are not ESL classes, but students may discuss individual goals with a counselor during registration. Free reading classes start in mid-June and meet at various times and locations throughout Oakton's district.
