GJ - This appears to be the role of a pastor, but everyone knows - anything goes.
KJV 1 Timothy 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. The Shrinkers like to slither away from the main point, but they know they are promoting the cause, one baby-step at a time.

It's the role of a pastor to teach ESL? What planet did you come from?
I have volunteered approximately weekly for this program for over three years. Beth is a wonderful woman with a true heart for Christ. She TEACHES ENGLISH to struggling immigrants. There are devotions offered after class in English and Spanish by Pastors and seminarians, and the students are welcomed to Sunday services. The language lesson has no religious component, unless it comes up in the conversation practice between volunteer and student. In fact, you would do well to see such faith in action that the dedicated volunteers demonstrate- it is stressed at every class that we do this out of Christian love for our brothers and sisters from around the world. This program has changed my life. It has changed many people's lives. If you want to look at my own blog I have posted about it as well.
