Former ESOL students said:

Learning English with CLMK gave me the confidence to go to job interviews.

Now I understand what my children are doing at school and how I can help them at home.

I can now talk to the doctor on my own.

I got a job because I improved my level of English with CLMK.

CLMK helped me to talk to my child’s school teacher.

I made new friends at CLMK and that’s helped me settle in to the community.

CLMK gave me the confidence to speak to managers and manage my issues at work.

I now study nursing at university; improving my English helped me with my application forms.
