Agency Description:
The Edith and Carl Marks Jewish Community House of Bensonhurst (Marks JCH) has been the community anchor serving southwest Brooklyn since 1927.
Since the mid 1980’s, the Marks JCH has helped resettle more than 50,000 immigrants from a variety of countries. The Marks JCH has implemented ESOL programs for 26+ years, consistently utilizing best practices in the field of ESOL and adult education instruction. We offer Adult Basic Education classes, ESOL classes at Beginning, Intermediate, and Advanced levels, and Computer Literacy classes for our Adult Literacy Program participants.
The ALE program’s students meet for 9-12 hours per week (3-4 sessions per week). Each session lasts 3 hours, and each term lasts from 12 to 15 weeks. The classes run in the morning, afternoon, and evening. We serve about 320 students per year in this program and host in-house registrations and pre-testing for classes every three months.
Agency Highlight:
Recently, one of our ALE program's students, Natalia P., was hired in a private accounting firm as a clerk. When we called to discuss her new job and offer congrats on her accomplishment, she praised our program and her English Language progress as a major reason behind her hire at the firm. Natalia attended an evening class four times a week (Monday through Thursday). Natalia is not the only one. Many of our students can share their success stories.
Our ALE program participants also benefit from an open access computer lab which helps them develop computer and life skills by learning new technologies. The computer lab offers the following features: Personalized lessons with instructor and over 200 self-study Life skills trainings, e.g. Accounting, Web design, Working from Home, Computer Science, Medical Vocabulary, Business and Management, Finance, Network, Office Productivity, and many more. This gives the students the skills and independence to access the most up-to-date information while learning important computer literacy and English language skills.
