Elsa’s Story – gaining confidence speaking English

When Elsa and her family moved from Hungary to Shetland, she found herself in a new country with a new language.

Her children quickly settled into a local primary school, and her husband began working for a local company. Elsa found everyday situations like speaking to teachers or chatting with other parents overwhelming. Elsa contacted Adult Learning and was introduced to our ESOL tutor who helped Elsa find the right class to suit her level and needs.

“My confidence speaking English has improved since I joined the class. I love being able to join online without arranging childcare. We have fun learning as a group. The tutor Maria is so friendly and approachable.”
