ESL 60 - Listening Skills 4

This mid-intermediate level course emphasizes vocabulary (and idiomatic vocabulary) development along with the expansion of listening and speaking skills on meaningful topics of current events. Students move from recognizing main ideas and specific factual details to using tone of voice and rhetorical devices to understand what is not directly stated, using authentic passages. Fun and innovative activities, both inside the classroom and out, allow students to practice their communication skills and transition to more academic topics.
