About Metro North Adult Basic Education (ABE)

Adults can take classes taught by licensed teachers and supported by professional assistants and trained volunteers who work with students to meet their educational goals. A student may start class at any time throughout the year. Classes are offered year-round during the day and evening. 

 

Classes offered can help students:

• Improve basic reading, writing and math skills
• Earn a high school diploma or GED
• Learn and improve English language

Teachers are trained specifically to work with adults and all materials are designed to help the adult learner. Students will have opportunities to work in groups and independently. Learning is done in the classroom, on the computer and online. Teachers will help students set and meet their goals. Most sites offer basic computer training during class time.
