The primary goal of this level is for students to refine
their formal and informal communication skills to the
point that they can function independently and deal with
everyday situations without difficulty. Students also
prepare for academic survival and success by working on
study and time management skills, becoming more familiar
with American college classroom culture, improving their
socialization abilities, and learning how to learn. Focus
on specific academic skills such as note-taking and giving
presentations is a fundamental part of this class. Upon
completing this level, the student should be ready for
academic work at an American university and should be
confident about living and working in an English-speaking
environment. |
