Sanz School was founded in 1939 as a foreign language school. It is accredited by COE and approved by the U.S. Department of Education.

Participants:

English as a Second Language is designed to meet the needs of individuals with limited or no English skills. The course provides intensive practice of the four components of language – speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Teachers use textbooks, workbooks, group activities and other tools and techniques in this full-time course to help build confidence. In addition to the basic four components of language, instructors also address American culture, ranging from customs and holidays and beyond to navigating everyday issues. Sanz School's ESL course also works to build students' job-hunting skills, emphasizing how to write rйsumйs, cover letters and thank you letters, as well as "do's and don'ts" of job interviewing. The complete program runs 30 weeks in the daytime or 36 weeks at night.  

There is also an intensive weekend program that meets on Saturdays and Sundays and which runs for 45 weeks.  All courses contain the same curriculum.

One more option - a part-time solution: students can take individual courses (10 weeks in the daytime or 12 weeks at night).  Upon successful completion of any level, students receive a certificate.
