 About Us 

Language ETC (Language, Education and Technology Center) offers adult immigrants in the Washington, DC area high-quality English language instruction (from basic to level five), as well as related educational services – computer classes, one-on one tutoring, and life-skills seminars. Our vision is for our students to build a better future for themselves and for their children and to become contributing and self-reliant members of our community. Our students come from more than 50 nations from around the world. We offer merit and needs-based scholarships. We charge minimum tuition for our classes, and turn no one away for inability to pay. We work with over 2000 adult students annually. We accomplish our goals will a small staff, a significant volunteer force of teachers, tutors, and mentors, and the support of donors from our neighborhood and community. Language ETC is making a real difference in the lives of immigrants in the community. Please let us know how you would like to get involved.

Language ETC website has a new look

Thanks to volunteer Matt Castanien who has put in countless hours last summer, Language ETC has a new look to our website. We hope this update will help our volunteers and students easily navigate the site to find the information they need right away. We plan to have the Spanish version of the website up and running soon.

 

Language ETC is proud to have been selected as a featured charity in the 2005 Catalogue for Philanthropy. Language ETC was selected from a competitive field of nearly 250 candidates. Proposals were reviewed by 50 professional grantmakers and leaders at 30 local foundations and nonprofit organizations. "Charities were selected for excellence, innovation, and cost-effectiveness--and for what they can teach us about the extraordinary ways that philanthropy works,” Harman said. “These are certainly among the best small charities in the Washington, DC region.” For more information about the catalogue and to order a free copy click here.
