English Conversation Class Registration

Time: 9:00a–11:00a

Location: W20-491

Our conversational English classes are a perfect home-away-from-home for women arriving at MIT whose first language is not English. These classes provide a warm venue for practicing English, increasing vocabulary and engaging in conversations with others.

Three levels of classes (Basic to Advanced) are held on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9:15 am to 11:00 am. On registration day, after a brief interview with a teacher, students are placed in their class levels. Babysitting is provided for children, age 6 months to 4 years at a cost of $150 a semester per child. Textbooks are provided and included in the class fee of $80 per semester.

Classes begin Thursday, February 16. That day students meet in the Stratton Student Center, Room 491, at 9:15 am for their class assignments.

First offered in 1963 by the Women's League to international women who arrived at MIT with their families, the English Conversation Classes continue to make an impact on visiting women. Over 3,500 women from 72 countries have taken these classes to learn or improve their English skills and have made new friends and gained confidence in their new lives here in the US.
