EVENING Class has Returned to Sunshine Ballpark as Usual!

MORNING Class has Begun Again at New City Fellowship!

Our English Classes

Our men’s and women’s ESL classes meet two days each week, for two hours each time. We have opened a second class, in a different location, in the evenings! See information below. If our classes don’t work for you, scroll down for a list of other ESL classes in the area.

Our morning classes and evening classes are at different locations.  But registration for both classes has finished. This means that you are now a late registrant. Registering late takes a long time. (This is because when you register, we test you to see what level of class is good for you. But now, all our teachers are busy teaching! So you will have to wait a long time, until someone is ready to test you.) You will also pay $10 extra. This is because we might have to special-order your book. To special-order, we pay extra money for postage.

REGISTRATION

We are opening a second class, in the evenings, at a different location! See below for details about how to register for the morning or the evening class. You must come in-person to register. 

MORNING CLASS

Morning class meets at New City Fellowship Church. The address is 200 Prince Edward Street, Fredericksburg, VA, 22401. See below to know where to park at New City Fellowship Church. Morning class is on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10am.

EVENING CLASS

Evening class is at Sunshine Ballpark near Bragg Hill. The address is 1200 Wicklow Drive, Fredericksburg, VA, 22401. For men, evening class is on Mondays and Wednesdays at 6pm. For women, it’s on Mondays and Thursdays at 6pm.

COST

The cost (fees) for a semester is $50. If you don’t have $50, come to registration anyway and talk to us about your situation. Sometimes we waive the fees, if a student needs it. Our teachers are volunteers, so you are paying for your curriculum (books), not your teacher! Now that registration is finished, you must pay $10 extra for postage for your book. So you should bring $60. We can accept cash only.

CHILDCARE

We have volunteers to watch small children at the morning class only.  But childcare is full for the Spring 2026 semester! This happens every January and every August. So that you don’t miss it again, check this website in the summer to see which dates in August registration will happen. Then come on the first  day of registration. We do not have childcare at the evening class. You may not bring any children to evening class.

DETAILS

For the comfort of our students, our classes are separated by gender.

We have many different levels at our morning class (about 10 levels for women). But our evening class is smaller. This means that students with a wider variety of abilities need to study together in the evening.

We are a Christian organization, so we include a story each day from the Holy Bible (Taurat, Zabur or Injil-e Sharif) in our classes. Most are stories Catholics and Muslims usually already know. Many are told in both the Holy Bible and Qur’an.

While we welcome students from all linguistic backgrounds, historically more than 90% of our students have spoken Dari or Pashto.

PARKING at NEW CITY FELLOWSHIP: Our morning classes meet at New City Fellowship Church, near Hazel Hill housing downtown. The address is 200 Prince Edward Street, Fredericksburg, VA, 22401. Don’t park on the street; the police might give you a ticket! The parking lot is behind the church building. One entrance is on Dunmore Street/ Gunnery Road near the Head Start preschool (Walker-Grant Center). To enter the parking lot, drive west on Dunmore Street (toward the Walker-Grant Center and preschool) to the intersection of Dunmore Street and Ferdinand Street. Look for the open yellow gate on your right side. At the gate, turn right into the parking lot. For details, visit our parking page.
