Heartfelt Tidbits offers a formal classroom setting for English language learning. In conjunction with three-hour ESL courses, they provide citizenship classes to those who have a higher English ability.

Classes are divided into small groups of 5-7 students. They are taught by our trained teachers and teaching assistants who help implement our innovative curriculum. Citizenship classes are taught by trained volunteers, and most often by refugees who have taken the citizenship exam.
