Watsonville -- After launching a six-week English as a Second Language ESL program at All Saints Episcopal Church in Watsonville in June, church organizers have learned that people are eager to learn English.
The six-week program was just a trial, according to Peggy Eklund, instructor at the Episcopal Church. But when it was over, the students weren't ready to leave.
"Sometimes it's difficult to learn English, but I'm trying to do my best," says Giasela Sota, a student at the church who's been learning with a private tutor. "Every day I'm learning something," she says.
The classes are free and open to anyone who wants to improve his or her English, no matter what the native language is.
