English Monitoring

The goal of this project is to continue to reinforce the language skills development of ESL students and to help them successfully complete their English course requirements in the winter semester.  The project is also designed to assist students in attaining a level of competency in English that will enable them to succeed in all of their college courses and on the English Exit Exam.

This project consists of individual tutorial sessions and workshops.  One-on-one tutorial sessions are given to all students registered in the project over the course of the semester.  The tutoring sessions are set up on an appointment basis. 

Tutorials are designed to develop specific skills based on individual student needs, and include editing practice and error analysis.  Tutorials may also include revision and editing (for form only, not content) of students’ written work in their courses, with the written permission of the instructor.  Assignments for students’ English courses are reviewed with the tutor only after they have been graded by the instructor. Grammar exercises may be used to supplement writing, revising and editing practice.
