    Description
    (No prerequisite.) This course for non-native English speakers prepares multi-lingual students for transfer-level courses by building proficiency in reading college-level texts, writing essays, and applying critical thinking skills. Students develop strong reading comprehension strategies and write clear, organized, well-supported essays that become increasingly longer and more complex over the term. Assignments help students build interconnections among readings, personal experience, observation, and class discussion. Students also spend one hour per week in the Reading/Writing Lab or ESL lab. Students who want to transfer to a CSU or UC and get credit for this course should sign up for the credit section, ENGL 120SL.
