ESL 090A English Language Test Preparation

This workshop course helps high intermediate-to-advanced level nonnative English speakers improve the integrated language skills (i.e., reading, writing, listening, and speaking) that are tested through such proficiency tests as the TOEFL iBT, IELTS, and ITEP. Much of the course work involves discussions of test-taking strategies and the completion of standardized practice tests. In addition, students are required to complete weekly language practice worksheets, voiceboards, and self-assessment protocols.
