LENG1171 English Beginner 1
Beginner 1 is the first integrated-skills course in the English for the Undergraduate Program in Languages and Culture (EPLC) and takes a holistic, integrated approach to the learning of English for General Purposes and also on more academic-oriented tasks. Students receive input and practice on reading, writing, listening, speaking, pronunciation and lexico-grammar. The majority of the course will be focused on general English instruction from the textbooks Cambridge Empower A2 and National Geographic Keynote 1, and will be supplemented with academic English tasks and extensive reading.
This student-centered course runs for 16 weeks, and it consists of five 1.5-hour classes and about 1.5 hours of individual work per week. The course is divided into three modules: module 1 is six weeks and modules 2 and 3 are five weeks each. During class time, students are encouraged to participate in different activities that will help them improve their language abilities, learning strategies, study and critical thinking skills. Group work, cooperative work, and peer-assessment are also part of every face-to-face class.
