Yesterday, as March and Women's History Month came to a close, students in our beginning ESL class selected notable women from history and presented the information to their peers. Oral presentations can provide ESL students with several benefits, including improved speaking skills, increased confidence, and opportunities to practice listening, reading, and writing. What a fantastic way to end the month at Spartanburg County Adult Education!
