Semester Hours: 0
This course is designed for non-native English-speaking students with intermediate-high proficiency in reading and writing as defined by the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) Proficiency Guidelines.  It focuses on improving students’ grammar usage, broadening their vocabulary, enhancing their interpretive reading strategies, analyzing cultural content in the texts, and improving their academic writing so they can narrate and describe in different time frames when writing about everyday events and situations.  Students will read a broad range of texts, and improve their mastery of the conventions of academic writing with special attention to well-structured paragraphs and the rhetorical structure of longer essays.  By the end of the course students will improve their reading and writing skills to the advanced-low level (ACTFL).
