When living in a country that predominantly speaks English, it should be the first language to learn and perfect. The Wall Street Institute starts with the basics in its effective "Three P's" rule of Presentation, Practice and Production. Students are taught alongside others at their own experience level by native English speakers to ensure a higher quality of learning and understanding. Role-playing situations are incorporated into the lessons to accustom students to a variety of interactions, from the simple daily exchange of giving directions to the more complex conversations, such as a job interview. As students gain momentum, fun group activities are held both within and out of the classroom, including holidays and karaoke nights. Don't let a limited knowledge of English restrict your opportunities. Sign up for classes today.

It is never too early to learn a different language. In fact, it is much easier to learn the younger you are. The classes at Fun with Foreign Language are specifically geared toward children, utilizing games, songs, arts and crafts and storytelling to learn Spanish or Mandarin Chinese. Classes range from toddlers (with an accompanying parent) up to 10 years of age, and parents are encouraged to reinforce the lessons learned with at-home activity sheets. Private, one-on-one tutoring is also available at home or in a public place. Best of all, children learning Spanish are given the opportunity to participate in the FunAbroad program where families spend a week in Costa Rica to put into practice what the student learned in the classroom.

There are those who must use a language without words and so, to communicate with them, one must learn to speak with their hands. The Hearing and Speech Agency promotes an awareness of the deaf community through its classes for American Sign Language. The "Signing Naturally" method has been taught at many institutions across the nation, where vocal speech is oftentimes avoided in the class. Students learn the basics of signing everyday conversations and also communicating abstract ideas. These classes are perfect for all, whether you know someone who is deaf, are looking to learn it for business purposes or simply want to learn sign language.
