MECHA
This class is for adults who are beginning English. You do not need to know English already. We go slowly. We repeat. You may ask questions in Spanish. Eight weeks. Two hours each week. Sixteen hours with a teacher, in a small group. In Lawrenceville, or from home on Zoom.
Week 1
We learn names, greetings, and “How are you?” You practice the alphabet and how to spell your name and street.
Week 2
Counting, the days of the week, and telling time. You practice making a simple appointment.
Week 3
Words for family, rooms, and the people you live with. You describe your home in short sentences.
Week 4
Grocery words, “I would like…”, asking a price, and paying. You practice a short conversation in a store.
Week 5
Job and school words. Calling out sick. Talking to a teacher. Filling a simple form with your name, address, and phone.
Week 6
Body words, the doctor, the pharmacy, and “I need help.” You practice what to say in an emergency.
Week 7
Directions, the bus, weather, and “Where is…?” You practice asking the way in Lawrenceville and nearby towns.
Week 8
We review the eight weeks. You have short conversations, read a notice, and leave with a simple plan for more English.
MECHA is a nonprofit classroom, not a private school. Since 1985 we have taught neighbors in Mercer County. The fee pays the teacher for those sixteen hours, the practice pages, and the Zoom room or the classroom on Bakers Basin Road. It is a community price. We do not charge a card on this website. You pay in the Lawrenceville office or after we send a card link.
Read this before you enroll. The number is the full class, not one day. Pay later in the office or after a card link.
$149
About $9 for each hour of class
Eight weeks from home. Same teacher, same sixteen hours.
Signing up early lets us fill the group and prepare. We pass that savings to you: $30 less than regular Zoom.
$179
About $11 for each hour of class
Eight weeks from home on a phone, tablet, or computer.
Zoom does not use the Lawrenceville room, so it costs less than coming in person. You still get the full sixteen hours.
$219
About $14 for each hour of class
Eight weeks at 231 Bakers Basin Road, Unit 5.
The extra covers the classroom — rent, heat, chairs, and printed pages — so we can sit together in Lawrenceville.
