Registration for Adult Basic Education, English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL), and General Equivalency Diploma (GED®) prep classes begins in September at Exeter Adult Education. All adults interested in improving their reading, writing, and math skills, speaking and reading English, or studying to take their GED are urged to attend registration day.
Adult Basic Education (ABE) classes are designed to help any adult who has not completed high school and who would like to improve his or her skills in reading, writing or math. Classes are small. A counselor talks with students about personal and career goals. ABE and ESOL classes are FREE.
When an adult is ready to prepare to take the GED exam, he or she may enroll in the GED prep class. This intensive class is offered to students who want to brush up on their skills in reading, English grammar, writing, and math to enable them to pass the exam. The fee for this course is $80 and includes Math and English books. Limited scholarships are available for those who need financial aid. Leslie Haslam, Director of Exeter Adult Education, added, “Students should come to school even if money is an issue. We will work it out for every student who wants an education.” Classes are held in the day and evening. Classes meet during the morning on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9 a.m. to noon and during the evening on Monday and Thursday from 6:30 to 9:00 p.m.
