Listening & Speaking

Beginning listening and speaking develops vocabulary and fluency by discussing various topics. Some activities to develop these skills include listening to podcasts and videos, role playing, and individual presentations. The student will also be introduced to the English phonetic system while learning simple common daily expressions.

 

Spoken communication and active listening skills necessary for college level study are developed in the advanced course. Speaking activities include interviews, debates, group presentations. Students read and discuss texts dealing with current events and engage in classroom discussion concerning these topics.
