English Language Classes

People come to Sunnyvale from all around the world. Some need some help learning English to manage the basics of living here. Saint Thomas provides two English Language Classes free to anyone who wants to learn. For more information Contact Us

Classes for Japanese-speakers are on Wednesdays at 1:00pm with instructor Linda Sutton and for Chinese-speakers are Fridays at 10am with instructor Mabel Cheng. Both classes take place in the chapel in the church.

Students are encouraged to get together for lunch to practice their language skills in real-life situations. What’s remarkable about these classes is that learning flows in both directions. Everyone, teachers and students alike, is enriched through the cultural exchange. 

Classes offer beginners a practical curriculum that focuses on everyday needs, such as:

  • making a 911 call
  • visiting a doctor
  • shopping at the supermarket
  • reading a bus schedule
