This course builds the skills that help you write assignments and term papers in English. At Level 1, you learn how to: - order information; - refer back; - use pronouns and possessive adjectives; - use simple lexical cohesion; - combine information; - use common punctuation devices; - distinguish between different people and things in a narrative; - describe location; - describe places; - describe events; - describe habits and routines. As well as preparing students for entry into English-medium study, the Skills in English Course is ideal for students who wish to improve their scores in skills-based examinations for university entry requirements, such as the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). Rather than focusing on exam preparation, Skills in English teaches the necessary skills as part of a systematic programme of language development. Skills in English courses are also available in Listening, Speaking and Reading. See the Skills in English website at for additional materials and help.
