JCLC has small class sizes and private tutors that can help students achieve their personal goals.

Computer Classes

In computer class, we teach our students the basic skills of the computer. The students learn how to type on a keyboard, use Microsoft Word and Google Chrome. Students learn how to use the computer and transfer their new skills to help them when searching for a job or looking to find information.

Citizenship Classes

For candidates who are eligible to take the Citizenship test, we offer a class to help prepare for the test. The class helps students to practice their English, study the 100 questions for the test, learn the Oath and Pledge of Allegiance and take trips to the court building and post office to learn about local government and community services. We have resources to help our students better prepare to take the test.
