Programs

English Classes

At the Habibi Center, we provide structured and academically rigorous English language instruction to refugee youth, enabling them to communicate effectively and integrate successfully into society

Our Literacy Program helps students learn to read and write, often for the first time, significantly improving their communication skills and enhancing their independence.

GED Preparation Classes

We offers GED (General Educational Development) exam preparation classes to students who are unable to complete the Greek school system. The GED exams are challenging, but with preparation classes for each of the subjects tested, students can pass the exams and obtain an American high school equivalency credential, which opens up more opportunities for their future.

Cambridge Exam Prep Classes

Students are prepared for official Cambridge English exams, boosting their language proficiency and facilitating their integration into educational and professional settings.

  • Level 1: Students gain foundational skills applicable to work and studies.
  • Level 2: Students sharpen their skills, becoming more independent IT learners.
  • Level 3: Students choose online courses (Coursera, FutureLearn, Udemy, or other certified platforms) for independent studies at HC with supervision, obtaining certifications that enhance their employability, including opportunities for remote work.
University Preparation Classes
