You will improve your English skills for college, work, and daily life. We want to help you reach your goals! In ESL classes you can: • Improve your English reading, writing, grammar, listening and speaking skills; • Earn college credits towards a degree, or complete a noncredit ESL certificate program; • Make friends and build your confidence in English. Chabot College has five levels of ESL classes, from High-Beginning to Advanced. We do not have beginner level classes. We recommend beginners start at an Adult School until they can read, write, and speak English in full sentences. Each class is one semester, 18 weeks long. Our core program includes Reading, Writing and Grammar classes at each level. You can also take Listening and Speaking classes. In our first 3 levels, we offer noncredit classes. That means you only need to pay the $33 student fee each semester. The classes are tuition-free. Levels 4-5 are our academic ESL program. Students can earn credits that are transferable to the California State University and the University of California schools. When students complete our advanced level courses, they are well prepared for English 1 (transfer level English) and/or a professional career. You will pay regular college tuition for these levels, so you may want to apply for financial aid.
