COVID-19 vaccination requirements for in-person classes at www.sunywc.edu/wdce-vax Eight levels of ESL instruction are offered (levels 0-8). Each level provides active practice in all English language skills: listening, speaking/pronunciation, standard grammar, reading, and writing. New students take a placement test to determine their level. These courses serve the needs of the general learner and learners preparing for college. Instructors are professionals in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages).
