In this episode of Chat Mate, we sit down with Francesca Bernal, Director of the Columbus Adult Education Center, to talk about the powerful work they are doing to support the community through education.

Francesca shares how the center offers free English classes to adults who want to improve their language skills and create better opportunities for themselves and their families. One of the most inspiring parts of this program is that every teacher and staff member is a volunteer, dedicating their time and effort to help others grow.

The mission of the Columbus Adult Education Center is simple but powerful: improving people’s lives through education and language learning. By helping individuals learn English, they open doors to better jobs, stronger confidence, and deeper connections within their community.

In this conversation, we discuss:

• The importance of learning English for personal and professional growth
• How the Columbus Adult Education Center operates with volunteers
• The impact education can have on immigrant and local communities
• Opportunities for people who want to learn or support the program

This episode is a reminder that education changes lives, and when communities come together to help each other, incredible things happen.
