Pathway Structure

In the Pre-Pathways levels, students are integrated into regular ESL classes where they will learn and practice the foundations of English. Focus will be placed on the development of skills in grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, listening, and speaking.

In Pathway I, students will build on the foundations of English skills, and shift more towards developing the skills which are essential for university bound students.

In the final level – Pathway II students will shift towards English for Academic Purposes. They will work on refining the skills that they learned in the earlier levels; however, the focus will move to those skills that will be necessary for life as a university student. In Pathway II, students will attend workshops that focus on note-taking techniques, summarizing lectures and building and developing research and presentation techniques.
