English Language Program: Building Confidence and Community At United We March Forward (UWMF), we believe that language is the key to opportunity. Our English Language Program is designed to help immigrants and refugees gain proficiency in English, enhancing their ability to navigate life in the United States. We offer in-person classes, ensuring a supportive environment where students can learn and practice together.
Partnering with Kirkwood Community College, we provide additional small group sessions to meet the diverse needs of our learners. Our program also offers access to language learning tools like Rosetta Stone, allowing students to practice at their own pace, wherever they feel comfortable. We celebrate milestones with our students, knowing that English proficiency takes time, dedication, and perseverance. Our goal is to empower individuals to succeed in their personal and professional lives while fostering a sense of community.
