ESL (English as a Second Language)

Western Community College > Programs > English Language Programs > ESL (English as a Second Language)

Program Overview

This course prepares students to use the English language with increasing efficiency and accuracy in classroom and social situations. Moreover, this basic to intermediate-level course aims to help students to meet the minimum English language competency requirements for programs that the students wish to take.

This course uses the integrated-skills approach (ISA) to teaching and learning, which focuses on a holistic methodology rather than teaching language skills in isolation. The course content targets students’ professional communication and aims to engage them in activities that require the use of a range of strategies in authentic communication. Overall, a dynamic, learner-centered teaching approach is utilized.
