IMPROVING ENGLISH LANGUAGE SKILLS

Tell me and I'll forget. Show me, and I may not remember. Involve me, and I'll understand.

STUDENT PLACEMENT IN OUR PROGRAM

Students are placed in EFL courses according to their performance on both the Internet-Based TOEFL and a writing sample given before the beginning of the fall semester.

THE PROGRAM OF STUDY

Not only is English the medium of instruction of all ABP courses, but English courses also make up approximately one half of the instruction delivered at the ABP. Following are the English courses being offered in our program: reading, writing, grammar (foundations), and listening & note taking are sequenced to take students from the sentence level to multiple paragraph discourse. In addition to our English course, there is courses are designed to help students improve their TOEFL scores during the academic year.

An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to t differentiate between what you know and what you don't.
