ESL310

In this course, students will review basic English grammar skills and develop their understanding and control of more complex grammar structures by focusing on their meaning, form, and use in reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Major topics include passive voice, past modals, causatives, adjective clauses, conditionals, all verb tenses, and accurate use of adverbs, time expressions, and time clauses. Students will complete paragraph-level writing assignments, recorded speaking assignments, and tests that require increasing levels of independent production with complex grammatical structures.

Prerequisite: a first language other than English
