Adult Education Program

DLYP teaches English to adults so they can support theirr children at home as well as in an academic setting. This is a key tool in assuring their child's academic success.

I am very happy for the English classes. Our Teacher motivates us to learn. She teaches us how to pronounce the words and how to write them. I hope that we continue having this program. I will be here.  Thank you.
