Learn English At Home

020 8255 6144

We help refugees/migrants in Hounslow/Kingston/Richmond areas improve their English language skills.

LEAH trains 50 volunteers a year to teach English as a second language (ESOL) either one to one in the student's home or in small group community classes with creche facilities. The students are mainly women with children referred by health visitors, social workers and other voluntary or health organisations who cannot otherwise attend classes. " (LEAH) Tutoring is not just teaching English. It not only helps one person but changes the lives of a whole generation..."

Pam mae ar y gymuned ein hangen ni

LEAH helps students overcome isolation and become more confident in integrating into the wider local community. The weekly visits of the volunteer home tutor play a central role in this, enabling them to talk to the doctor on their own, speak with teachers, use public transport, join the library and visit their local children's centre. "I enjoyed my student's growing enthusiasm and involvement in learning English with me. I see my role as a 'bridge' to the local culture."
