    Description
    Description: Develops intermediate conversation, pronunciation, idiomatic and aural comprehension skills. Intended for non-native speakers of English who can make themselves understood but are not yet proficient in self-expression. Conversational and idiomatic skills focus on fluent and appropriate use of oral communication skills in a variety of social, business and/or academic situations. Pronunciation focuses on clearer articulation of English vowels and consonants and on increased control of the stress, intonation and rhythm of English. Listening comprehension stresses understanding verbal instructions and questions on campus and in the workplace. Students continue to learn appropriate verbal and non-verbal behavior as well as conversation management techniques to exchange ideas in small and large group communication. (Non-degree credit course) 54.00 hours lecture and 18.00 hours laboratory. (Pass/No Pass only)
