Mission Statement
The Language Clinic was created to establish a safe and fun place on campus for our English language students to meet and practice their conversation and writing skills with native speakers from the LaGuardia Community College community. The aim is to assist them in attaining communicative competence in furtherance of their personal, academic, and professional goals. The Language Clinic will open for Fall 2016 on September 27th. Please contact us at mculhane@lagcc.cuny.edu for more information.
Description
The Language Clinic is open in the afternoon on Mondays and Wednesdays for one-on-one writing tutoring, and Tuesdays and Thursdays for small group conversation practice. Interested students sign up in advance each week for a place in the Clinic. The Language Clinic is part of The English Language Center, which is the adult pre-academic ESL program of LaGuardia Community College (CUNY). The English Language Center is one of the largest and most diverse ESL programs on the east coast, with students from over 80 different countries. Our students are highly motivated and enjoy having interesting conversations with native speakers.
