ESL116 Advanced ESL Listening and Speaking 1
Students begin to prepare for the academic challenges encountered in non-ESL classes by developing strategies for successful academic listening, including looking for key points, interpreting detail, recognizing organizational patterns and understanding emphasis in lectures. Students develop effective note-taking techniques to help them organize and understand the information presented to them. They also work on their pronunciation and practice their oral skills by discussing topics in pairs and small groups. Students are required to make short oral presentations, some of which may be videotaped. (3 hours of lecture per week)
