English Corner<\/p>

\u3000\u3000The Language Center invites professional native English teachers to lead the English conversation classes. The target of English Corner is to serve the students in CYCU, especially those making up the largest group of student who tend to shy away from English. We offer a practical learning experience in listening, speaking, and conversation-building. Consequently, an important objective of the Corner is to empower students, especially the non-enthusiasts, with a self-actualized desire to learn. These efforts are reinforced in an atmosphere rich in encouragement with the hope that all students will develop higher levels of self-confidence in their abilities to function in all English environments. Ultimately we hope that our shy students, like their enthusiastic counterparts, will \u201cwant\u201d to be involved in the Corner.<\/p><\/div>

Writing Clinic<\/p>

\u3000\u3000The aim of Writing Clinic is to help graduate and senior students of CYCU improve the writing skills they need for success in their academic programs. Students have to make a reservation (30 minutes for each section) in the Language Center in advance. When students are actively involved in the process of revision (through questioning, explaining, and providing examples), they are able to learn from mistakes and become more competent and confident writers.
The Writing Clinic helps with a variety of academic literacy issues. Typical issues include:<\/p>

  • Improving basic skills such as constructing sentences and linking paragraphs<\/li>
  • Writing abstracts, research papers, and other academic papers<\/li>
  • Enhancing collocation or correct word usage within the paper.<\/li><\/ul>

    Students must bring a piece of their own writing such as a homework assignment or English paper, as well as their thesis. The instructor will focus on the areas of the student’s writing that are most problematic. Note that one session may not be sufficient to cover all areas of concern.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

    English Consultation Room<\/p>

    \u3000\u3000Face-to-face counseling for students who suffer from English learning problems such as reading, listening, resume writing and so on. Students have to make a reservation in the Language Center\u2014Holistic Village (Room 506) in advance (30 minutes for each session). The counseling service is free for all the students in CYCU.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
