Welcome to Language Central!
We are a non-profit community school for adults that offers conversational English, Spanish, Somali Language and Culture, and Chinese. Twice a year we offer an unique class called Spanish Through Music. The fees that are collected through our Spanish and Somali classes help to provide low-cost or free English classes for the immigrants and refugees in the Northeast Minneapolis community. When you help yourself learn, you help others to learn as well. Language Central's Spanish Language Training Program is an innovative way we reach municipal workers (firefighter, police officers, clerks, life guards) by meeting them where they work. Even the smallest amount of learning gives these workers more confidence in situations where there is a language barrier. The program gives these municipal workers empathy as they realize what it's like for those that are learning English as a second language. Language Central is always looking for volunteers to assist in ESL classes - a perfect opportunity for those interested in engaging with our community or for those seeking classroom hours needed to complete ESL certification. **NEW**
