Hi there,

Thank you for sharing your question with us.

The eligibility criteria for ESL classes varies between institutions. Your geo-tag indicates that you are in Toronto, a few free/low-cost ESL services for temporary residents include the Toronto Public Library ESL program or the Toronto District School Board ESL program for adult learners which are $7.00 per hour for classes after a one-time assessment costing $60.00.

It may help to connect with a community resource navigator at 211 to narrow your search. 211 Ontario is a free, confidential service. Their phone service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Here is a link to their live chat if you prefer to communicate online. Their live chat service is available Monday to Friday from 7am-9pm ET.

If you have any additional questions, please feel free to post them here. We hope this information is helpful.

Sincerely,

Your Settlement.Org Team
