In ENGL-085, students will develop the listening and speaking skills needed to succeed at a US college or university. Class work will consist of pronunciation practice, listening activities, small group and class discussion of selected readings and lectures, oral presentations, and simulations of aspects of academic life. If students place into 2 or more ESL courses, they are required to take ENGL-085. Students can be exempted from this requirement by passing an oral exam. Students placed into ENGL-083 AND ENGL-084 must complete both ENGL-083 and  ENGL-084 before taking ENGL-085. (3 hours weekly)
