English as a Second Language (ESL) Program
SCS's ESL Program is integrative and individualized. Students are assessed and placed so that they will be successful in their academic and social lives. The program includes tutoring in reading, written and conversational English, as well as academic vocabulary. SCS employs teaching methods that combine traditional classroom instruction with interaction, innovation, and individual tutoring. ESL labs, concentration exercises, and practical learning experiences (field trips, student clubs, athletics, and other extra-curricular activities) all supplement the learning of English effectively.
SCS’s ESL Program specifically assists students to use spoken and written English to gather, interpret, and communicate information; to establish and maintain relationships; to make decisions, solve problems and plan/carry out projects; and be fully prepared for university success.
