This class is designed for high intermediate and advanced ESL students who want to further develop spoken fluency in English and learn how to better monitor their speech for pronunciation errors. Activities will include role-playing, conversation, small group and class discussions, oral reports, interviewing, pronunciation practice, and use of videos and audio. Although the focus of this course is on aural/oral proficiency, various readings will be used to stimulate class discussion, and some written assignments will be required as well.
