Gaye and Esperanza have spent hundreds of hours together working on Esperanza’s English. Gaye writes, “I look forward to seeing Esperanza each week and am proud of her accomplishments. Sometimes our best lessons are the days when we just sit and talk.” Esperanza tells us that she deeply appreciates the opportunity to have a friend in the English-speaking community. All of their hard work has paid off recently when Esperanza earned her GED diploma. Gaye is a Basalt resident. Esperanza moved to the U.S. from Mexico in 1998.
