Find an ESL and GED class

English as a Second Language (ESL) coursework is designed to help students who are looking to learn English as their second, third, or in some cases, fourth language. These programs provide teachers who are there to help students develop their speaking, writing, reading, and listening skills in English.

Texas adult learners who are interested in high school equivalency testing can choose between three tests: the GED (General Education Development), the TASC (Test Assessing Secondary Completion), and the HiSET (short for simply High School Equivalency Test).
