KSU to Host English as a Second Language Open House

Kennesaw State University’s College of Continuing and Professional Education will hold an English as a Second Language (ESL) open house event on Monday, Dec. 9 from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the KSU Center, 3333 Busbee Drive, Kennesaw.

The free event is open to the public and will provide in-house grammar tests allowing guests to improve their English skills, career options or to prepare themselves for college.

Additionally, the Dec. 9 open house will provide opportunities to learn about the program and requirements, ask questions, review textbooks and more.

The grammar test will help determine where potential students should begin their studies. New students will receive a gift bag and a $20 discount when they register for their first class. 

"Students who finish our program are prepared to take on new challenges in careers and education with improved English skills," Lyn Cohen, ESL program manager, said in a press release.

Rasmey Knieling, current ESL student, said she took the ESL course because she wanted to improve her grammar, writing and communication skills for jobs. "I would take this class again in a heartbeat," Knieling said in the release. "You can tell the difference between teachers who come in to teach versus ones who have a passion to teach and want their students to learn."
