Letter to the editor: CVUUS helps language learning classes flourish

On behalf of the students and tutors and teachers of the ELL class held at the Champlain Valley Unitarian Church, I would like to thank the members of the church for allowing our class to meet at the church for the last two years.

From the start, we were welcomed by Laura Asermily, along with members of the church, who have gone above and beyond to accommodate us by allowing us to have access to all the facilities. The students in the class are from Mexico and Central America we were able to have classes in the kitchen including a lesson on rhubarb, to share space with the rug hookers, and to celebrate special occasions together.

CVUUS is a wonderful resource in our community, especially Laura, and we look forward to our next round of classes in the fall.
