教學目標     Objective
Teaching methods reflect the view that language is best learned through negotiation of 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. Because students also benefit from explicit knowledge of language rules, classes will also include lessons on grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. Finally, the course will help students develop strategies read and write effectively in English.
