Help! Need ESL Junkmail lists for Spanish speaking Husband

[emmasma]

I am new to the forum. I am a ntive English speaker. I joined because I need help for my husband.
I am aproud mother and wife of a proud Guatemalan man. We live in Michigan and have a decent life. I have one small problem. He speaks very little English and I can't get him to take classes. If I bother him about it he is insulted. It would improve our family life, his job, and he would be able to talk to my family if he would only put in some effort. I am really looking for ideas on how to encourage my proud, stubborn husband to learn English. He agrees that he should, just has other priorities (working overtime at his lowpaying job). He is a hard, reliable worker, and a good man. I don't like to see his time wasted only because he does not speak English.

This is where I need help. He does not use the internet, but he loves getting paper mail. Are there any ESL mailing lists That I can put his name on? Free catalogs of English learning schools, courses, cheap monthly mailings, exc. preferably things in spanish, but English OK too.

Dear Emmasma,

Many thanks for joining our forum. You've asked a very interesting question. I think the trick is to make your husband see the benefits of learning English. You could ask him these questions:
Why did we decide to move to the US?
What goals in life do we have?
How can we achieve our goals?

Let's see what he has to say and we can take it from there. As for free language course materials. Have you tried googling them?

Talk to you soon,
Torsten
