Foreign Language Workshops

In keeping with NLU's history of service to urban, immigrant and minority populations, the University offers workshops designed for community-based educators, tutors, literacy volunteers and high school English as a second language (ESL)/bilingual teachers and aides.

These workshops offer a solid grounding in current best thinking and practice in teaching English as a new language. The theories and principles of second language acquisition and the features of the English language are integrated with ESL teaching methodologies, assessment techniques and the use of music and movement to teach English as a new language to adults.
