ESL for ITAs Course Descriptions

370.600 Oral Skills for International Teaching Assistants
Through a variety of communication activities, international TAs who are non-native speakers of English work to improve fluency, accuracy, and intelligibility in speaking and increase listening comprehension in interactions with undergraduates. Additional language lab practice reinforces class work.

370.601 Communication Strategies in the American Classroom
Prospective international teaching assistants work to improve their English language skills while familiarizing themselves with the culture of the American classroom and effective teaching strategies. Several times during the semester students are filmed practice teaching and then meet individually with the instructor to analyze their progress. Open to international TAs and other full-time graduate students in Arts and Sciences and Engineering. 

These courses are open only to graduate students in Arts & Sciences and Engineering. For Non Credit ESL Courses for adults who want to improve their academic and professional speaking and writing skills, please see the English as a Second Language Program for Professionals.
