TESOL Ministry

07/10/2026

In an emergency, not being able to explain what's wrong isn't just a language barrier—it can determine whether someone gets the help they need.
That's why we're building English for Emergencies: a practical English curriculum that teaches the exact language people need in a crisis, including medical emergencies, personal safety, and calling for help.
The program will be available in flexible formats, including self-paced online learning and tutor-led online or in-person classes.
It's designed for:
🌍 Sending agencies preparing people to live and work abroad
🏢 International organizations supporting staff who are not fluent in English
⛪ Churches and refugee ministries providing ESL programs for the people they serve
We're not launching publicly just yet, but we'd love to give you an early look:

TESOL Ministry is a 501(c)(3), and this project is entirely donor-funded. If this mission resonates with you—or if your organization could benefit from a program like this—we'd love to hear from you. Send us a message to learn more or to help us bring it to completion.

Vocabulary and phrases for real emergencies — built for aid workers, missionaries, international staff, and study-abroad students.

Is your ESL ministry prepared for what's happening in communities across the country? Do you know how to support students who are living with fear and trauma? What would it look like to respond with both courage and compassion?
We'd love to help you answer these questions together. Join us Monday.

ESL ministry leaders — this one is for you. 🙌
As immigration enforcement operations intensify across the country, your students are scared, your volunteers have questions, and your ministry may be closer to the front lines than you ever expected.
We've gathered an immigration attorney, a trauma-informed counseling specialist, and the Executive Director of We Choose Welcome to help you navigate this moment with wisdom, compassion, and faith.
