BEGINNING ENGLISH

In Reading, students learn to skim; scan; identify the main idea and supporting details; make predictions about a text; answer questions about a text; identify signal words, transitions, pronouns, and referents; identify parts of speech and verb tenses; guess the meaning of unknown words from context; and recognize prefixes and suffixes. In Writing, students learn to write both simple and compound sentences with correct punctuation and capitalization. They write at the sentence and paragraph level using simple present tense, simple past tense, and simple future tense. In Grammar, students review the basic parts of speech and their functions in a sentence, the simple tenses (present, past, and future) and present and past continuous, pronouns, prepositions of time and location, articles, singular and plural nouns, and question formation.

INTERMEDIATE ENGLISH

In Reading, students learn to skim; scan; identify the main and supporting details; make predictions and answer questions about a text; identify signal words, transitions, pronouns, and referents, parts of speech and verb tenses; guess the meaning of contextual words; recognize prefixes and suffixes, recognize noun, adjective, and adverb clauses, and distinguish between fact and opinion.

INTERMEDIATE ENGLISH LAB

The Language Center courses are designed to help students cope with university education in English. The unlock listening and speaking 2 (Intermediate English Lab.) focuses on developing students’ listening, speaking and critical thinking skills. Students watch videos, listen to audios, think critically to be able to speak about different topics using a simplified academic language. The intermediate English lab is meant to prepare students for speaking and listening contexts. Students learn strategies for improving listening comprehension and stimulating critical thinking. The language lab component is specifically designed to improve students’ speaking and listening skills.

ADVANCED ENGLISH

This is an integrated skills course in which students work on reading, Writing, listening' and speaking. In reading, student learn to distinguish between fact and opinion,determine the author's purpose or point of view, justify answers to comprehension questions,make inferences, read academic texts, recognize grammatical relation ship in atext. In Writing, student learn to write complex sentences and comma splices. In Grammar, the review parts of speech, articles, and phrases and clauses.

ADVANCED ENGLISH LAB

This course aims at developing students listening and speaking skills. This is to be accomplished through helping them enrich their lexical input so that they can understand English language in its spoken forms as a focus and in its written form too. As a result, they will be able to communicate successfully. The course provides students with a series of listening, speaking, reading, pronunciation and vocabulary exercises that meet Bloom’s learning objectives. Furthermore, it aims at developing their critical thinking skills.
