Student Testimonials

We all come to VMLC for help to communicate. Here we have very kind people, who give us their time, patience and knowledge. For all of that I say, "Thank you."

-- Maria Antonia, Morning Class, 2 years

I need to speak English to help my children with homework. VMLC has teachers that help many people learn a new language. It is nice because they have classes at night. I work in the day.

-- Telesforo M., Night Class, 1 year

Our teachers are very nice and smart people. They teach us a lot of English. I want to thank them all for their patience and taking their time to teach us. God bless you all.

-- Maria R., Morning Class, 2 years

This school is important to me because when I first coming I don't speak English, and now I speak little bit, and this is thanks to my teachers. They are great people. They give their time to teach us.

-- Rosa O., Afternoon Class, 1 year

VMLC is very important to me because I learned to speak, to write, to read and to have better pronunciation. That's because they have the best teachers and they help me with my goals. I am thankful to be in this school.

Volunteer Testimonials

"This is the most rewarding volunteer job you will ever have. The students are so enthusiastic and eager to learn. It is so rewarding to watch them progress throughout the semester."

-- Marion Whorton, Night Class Tutor

"With only two people on staff, 400 students, 125 pre-K school-aged children, and 65 volunteers, there is an overwhelming need for help with all the record keeping. I don't know how Judy and Sarah keep up."

-- Liz Ragland, Student Records Management Volunteer

"This is fun. I never know from one time to the next what is going to be needed. They (staff) are always cooking up something for the students and tutors."

-- Sally Dutter, Staff Assistant

"We have such an opportunity here to prepare these youngsters for preschool while they are here with their moms. They are like little sponges."

--Susan Madole, Childcare Task Force Member
