required for A2-B1 level students admitted to the College of Nursing, who
failed the English Proficiency Test (EPT). This course focuses on introducing
speaking, listening, reading and paragraph writing skills necessary for success
in the academic atmosphere. By utilizing

progress, providing them with feedback, correction and guidance to equip them
with the knowledge and the skills needed to successfully progress in
college-level courses.
