Good morning, everyone. And welcome to the English for Academic Purpose Cent

Good morning, everyone. And welcome to the English for Academic Purpose Center. I’d like to begin by briefly introducing the services we offer here at our center. First of all, we have a wide range of language courses. In the first semester, we run an 8-week Conversation class for students of non-English speaking backgrounds. We wish to improve their fluency, grammar and pronunciation in English. The course is held on Tuesdays between 12:30 and 1:30. So that’s one hour once a week. Please enroll with the secretary before Friday this week. For those of you who are interested in developing your writing skills, we have a 6-week course which runs for 2 hours between 4 and 6 on Wednesday afternoons, beginning in week one. It concentrates on the writing skills needed for assignments in the departments of economics and social sciences. Students must be enrolled in either of these departments. You are probably not thinking about taking examinations yet. But later on, towards the end of the term, you might like to enroll in our Examination Skills class. The course runs for 5 weeks, and two hours in a week. The course deals with the skills you need, in both written tests and oral examinations. It is not necessary to enroll before the course starts. Just turn up for the first class.
