The first course in the study of English listening and speaking skills designed for students whose first language is other than English. The course includesbasic listening comprehension practice as well as discussion, pronunciation and presentation skills in spoken English.

Students will practice skills learned in ESL 96, learn and use new vocabulary, and practice academic skills such as listening, note taking, and problem solving.

ESL 97 is a wonderful class for practicing the Englsih skills you have learned. The class gives you an opportunity to improve conversation skills to help you in school and work, note taking skills to help improve your grades, listening skills for academic classes and everyday living.

It is very important to come to this class prepared - that means you must always bring your textbook and materials AND you MUST speak Englsih during the entire class period.

The more you practice listening, speaking and thinking in English, the easier it will be for you to achieve your goals.

If you have questions or need assistance, please feel free to contact me. And, welcome to class!
