SYUINUK COMMUNITY COLLEGE
At SYUINUK Community College we offer ESOL classes for dedicated learners willing to excel in the English language and improve their general English communication skills. We offer a wide range of levels including Pre-Entry Level, Entry Level 1, Entry Level 2 and Entry Level 3.
We believe that everyone deserves to receive free education, especially those at a disadvantage. We aim to increase English literacy in our community so that our community may become more independent and confident within themselves. Unlike our neighbouring colleges, we do not expect our learners to pay for their English studies; many of our learners gravitate towards SYUINUK Community College for this particular reason along with our dedicated team of educators.
As mentioned previously, many members of our community are either refuges, asylum seekers or immigrants. This means that the majority of them are unable to speak, read and communicate in English and as a result of this, they become dependent on others. At SYUINUK Community College we aim to give back to our community by equipping our English language learners with the skills they need to gain back their independence.
For learners who are completely new to learning English, we enrol them into our Pre-Entry Level class. This class goes on once every week and aims to support and familiarise learners with the English alphabet, general English phrases, and introduces sentence structure.
Learners who have the ability to read, write and communicate are either put in Entry Level 1, Entry Level 2 or Entry Level 3. The class learners are put into is entirely dependent on how they perform on their initial assessments. In these classes, learners learn how to write emails and letters, gain general knowledge of English grammar and learn how to communicate in English.
At SYUINUK, our motto is ‘Improving the Quality of Lives’. Many people in our community visit SYUINUK Community College to access our free form filling service. One of the forms we fill include driving licence applications. Our staff expertly and quickly help people with the process of applying for a driving licence whether it is an online application or a paper copy. Because our process is efficient, there is minimal delay in our client’s driving licence applications.
Another form filling service we offer are passport applications. Applying for a first passport or a renewed passport is a very tedious task. Many people in our community are unable to fill in this type of form due to many factors which include: not being able to read or write in the English language or simply being busy with the home. This service is especially helpful to single mothers/fathers and the elderly who may have problems with the small print on the forms.
Many of our clients are in need of housing assistance, especially single parents. Due to the high divorce/separation rates in our community, there are many single parents who become the sole providers for their children. Now, with the high rent prices in London and high childcare costs, it is impossible for many single parents with young children to work full time, this is why they need housing assistance. Our skilled staff help those who need housing assistance to apply for housing benefit quickly and efficiently. As a charity we aim to please and help the vulnerable members of our community to the best of our ability.
