ESL010 Pronunciation and Listening I

2 credit(s)
The course is designed to help non-native English speakers with critical listening skills, while also stressing speaking and pronunciation. The course utilizes a blended learning approach structured around face-to-face instruction as well as an online program providing speech recognition technology via a provided headset and microphone.  Learners are given feedback and instruction to correct pronunciation based on native tongues.  Additionally, students study reading, grammar and vocabulary specific to various subjects/careers.  The online modules are designed for independent use and are individualized in both pace and level.  Teacher led instruction examines non-verbal cues, note-taking skills, stress and intonation, as well as issues arising from cross-cultural communication.
