本課程藉由提供學生練習工作及社交英文的環境，讓同學能聽、說、讀、寫四種技能並進。所以課程分成兩部份：每週上課兩次的聽力會話課程，以及每週上課一次的閱讀寫作課程。
本課程之教學是期望學生經由有意義地運用英文來學會英文溝通。為了加強學生的字彙能力及使其深入了解英文聽、說、讀、寫等技能的句型結構，課程係以採用主題單元的方式呈現。上課全程以英語授課，搭配不同活動，提供學生交換資訊、表達意見、參與討論、分享觀念及感想的機會。另外，為了讓學生能明瞭語言的規則，課堂上亦會清楚呈現文法、生字及發音的內容。最後，本課程會幫助學生培養有效的英文閱讀及寫作能力的策略。
《 課程簡介 -- English 》
This course is designed to provide a setting where learners can develop all four language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing), to communicate in English for business and social purposes. The course is divided into two area groups: Listening & Speaking, which meets twice a week, and Reading & Writing, which meets once a week.
Teaching methods reflect the view that people learn to communicate by using language to negotiate meaning. Lessons are presented in thematic units to reinforce vocabulary and structure across all skill areas. Instructors will speak English and offer students a variety of activities, providing opportunities to exchange information, express opinions, and share ideas and feelings. The course further assumes that students benefit from explicit knowledge of language rules, so classes will also include lessons on grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. Finally, the course will help students develop strategies read and write effectively in English.
