English Language Programs (ELP)

Andong National University English Language and Culture Program

The Andong National University Winter Program was a four-week English Language and Culture Program for Korean students from Andong National University. Classes met twenty hours per week. The lower levels focused on functional communication skills, and the upper levels concentrated on academic skills: essay writing, university-level reading, discussion of literature, and visits to university classes to improve lecture listening skills and note-taking. A cultural component was also integrated into the program. In addition to these classes, the program participants enjoyed outdoor activities and entertainment in Western Montana. They explored downtown Missoula and rode the carousel, skied at Lolo Pass, soaked in Lolo Hot Springs, and watched live drama at the Missoula Children's Theater. Finally, they had a chance to spend a day eating dinner with a local family while experiencing life in an American home.
