Milwaukee Area Technical College — Walker’s Square Education Center

Walker’s Square is at 816 W National Avenue in a Milwaukee area with a strong Hispanic and Latino presence. MATC lists it as an education center offering English as a Second Language (ESL) classes and adult-education options. For someone still building English skills, this can be an entry point before moving into technical or college-level coursework.

ESL is not a degree or a universal admission requirement. It is a six-level learning pathway, from beginning to advanced. A TABE Clas-E assessment helps determine placement and location; day, evening and Saturday options are available depending on the current schedule. Classes cover listening, conversation, reading, writing, pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary useful in work and study.

The center has weekday general service hours and is part of the college shuttle link with Downtown and Westown Green. MATC lists visitor parking at Walker’s Square, though instructions can depend on the event or appointment. For Spanish-language help with admissions, FAFSA or records, the college publishes a Spanish assistance line; call before traveling so staff can direct you to the right office.
