    Description
    Advisory: NCIE 101 and NCIE 102. This course provides instruction in listening and speaking skills, and grammar for non-native speakers of English. Listening skills include: pre-listening, such as connecting the topic to previous knowledge; while-listening, such as identifying main ideas of the listening segment; and post-listening, such as checking for understanding. Examples of speaking skills include restating main ideas, and asking questions about the listening segment. Students also have the opportunity to practice clear pronunciation of common words and phrases, and stress and intonation patterns. Examples of grammar to be taught are the Simple Present tense and modals of possibility and necessity.
