This is a preparatory course designed to enable studens who have scored 450 or less in the English part of the College Board examination to successfully complete their English requirements by developing listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. It also aims to modify student's attitudes toward the learning of English, easing the transition between high school and university level English courses.

This course integrates the four language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing while developing student’s vocabulary and grammatical structures.

This course is designed to help students increase their confidence, fluency, and correctness in the use of spoken English.  Special attention is given to pronunciation, developing a strong vocabulary, and those features present in oral language such as idiomatic expressions. The idea is to provide the students with the necessary tools to improve their oral competency; to this end, the student will move from simple dialogues to dialogues with a higher technical context.
