Intermediate ESL students who have difficulty reading English are encouraged to enroll in free summer reading classes sponsored by Oakton Community College's Alliance for Lifelong Learning (ALL).

The purpose of these free reading classes is to develop reading and writing skills for personal or employment purposes, and students may discuss their goals and needs with a counselor at registration. These are not ESL classes. Classes are funded by the Illinois Community College Board, the Office of the Secretary of State, and the Illinois State Library.
