New! Group for English for Speakers
of Other Languages
Watertown has a long history of being a home for a
diverse and vibrant immigrant community, and in my
role as case worker, I have come to know and work with
many seniors who are concerned that their differences
in language and culture are leading to isolation. Such
isolation, especially among older adults, can harm their
emotional and physical well-being.
Last year, we started a weekly ESL class. We see the
ESL group as another venue to support older members
of our community who come from diverse backgrounds,
including recent immigrants to the United States.
The ESL class is led by volunteer teachers, with
extensive experience in teaching and multicultural
communication. The session is an hour long, and is held
at our Senior Center on Wednesdays at 2 pm. The
curricula includes basic grammar, reading, and writing
skills reinforcement. Our students are given the
opportunity to share their cultural backgrounds, history
of Watertown, politics, and many other topics of
common interest.
Please call the Senior Center at (617) 972-6490 or
email me at mkirsanova@watertown-ma.gov to
register for the class.

COMMON SCAMS
IRS SCAMS: IRS impersonators
frequently call seniors and accuse
them of owing back taxes and
penalties. These callers may threaten
home foreclosures and arrests to scare
a senior into providing personal
information and money.
TIP: The IRS will NEVER ask you
for your personal information such as
social security or bank account
numbers. They will NEVER demand
immediate payment over the phone.
Hang up if you receive unexpected
phone calls from someone claiming to
be the IRS and/or other government
agencies.
FAMILY/FRIEND HAS BEEN
ARRESTED OR HAS BEEN IN
AN ACCIDENT SCAM:
Someone impersonating a friend of
family member calls pretending
they have been in an accident,
arrested, or stuck in a foreign
country. The stammers are very
good at what they do and the story
they tell you, is very convincing.
TIP: Slow the process
down... then get off the phone and
contact a family member or the
person who supposedly contacted
you. Verify all information.
Stammers request payment
through gift cards and Western
Union. Never purchase and
provide the gift card numbers to
anyone over the phone and or
internet. This is always a SCAM.
Always contact the Watertown
Police if you suspect fraudulent
activity at 617-972-6500.

THE SENIOR CENTER BOOK CLUB
WHEN: Wednesday, February 20 at 9:30. WHERE:
Senior Center, 31 Marshall St. Join us to discuss:
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark
Twain. Copies of the book are available at the
Watertown Free Public Library. Hilariously
picaresque, epic in scope, alive with the poetry
and vigor of the American people, Mark Twain's
story about a young boy and his journey down the
Mississippi was the first great novel to speak in a
truly American voice. Influencing subsequent
generations of writers, from Sherwood Anderson
to Twain's fellow Missourian, T.S. Eliot, from
Ernest Hemingway and William Faulkner to J.D.
Salinger -- Huckleberry Finn, like the river which
flows through its pages, is one of the great sources
which nourished and still nourishes the literature
of America.
New members are always welcome!
