Council teaches ‘survival English’ to give immigrants a life-boost

March 3, 2010 By Northwest Asian Weekly

“When you don’t know the right word, you’re going to keep your mouth shut,” said Sharon Victor, president of the Literacy Council of Seattle. In its 40th year, the Literary Council aims to “teach adults the English skills they need to be successful in their job, families, and the community,” according to its mission statement.
