MVLA Adult Education

One question that I always get is where to take ESL classes. I always recommend Mountain View Los Altos Adult Education. Registration for fall is open right now. Here's a link to the class catalog.

I just registered for a few classes, Tai Chi and an embroidery class. I’ve been interested in Tai Chi for years, and from inside the Chamber of Commerce I can watch people doing it in Pioneer Park. That’s my goal. I want to be one of those people doing it in the park, after I figure out how to do it. 

The classes are very affordable, especially considering how expensive everything is in Mountain View.

I’ve taken art classes through MVLA Adult School and always enjoyed the experience. I love getting to know the other students, who are mostly Mountain View residents. I’ve taken their ceramics class many times and that class is full of lots of friendly people that want to talk while they’re working on their projects. You’ll end up having lots of new friends, in addition to a few coffee mugs and pencil holders.

The classes take place at 11 different locations in our community, not just at the school on Moffett. 

A few points worth mentioning from the MVLA Adult Ed website:                                               Who is eligible to register: Classes are open to residents and non-residents 18 years and older. (more details here) Refund Policy:  Please choose classes carefully. Because the fees collected pay teachers’ salaries, the refund policy is limited. (more details here)

So if you think you might be interested in anything from career technical classes, to business, to dance and music, to parenting or physical fitness, check out this school that is right in the middle of Mountain View. Back-to-school season is for adults too!
