Aims

To develop English reading, writing, listening and speaking skills to an IELTS equivalent of 5.5.

Module Content

Outline Syllabus:
- reading strategies for academic study
- academic writing and style
- listening and note taking skills
- paraphrase, summary and synthesis writing
Additional Information:
English language assessment will be bench-marked against the International English Language Testing System (IELTS), such that a minimum grade of IELTS 5.5 will be achieved.

Such mapping requires an increased number of learning outcomes to be met by students and assessment of all four language skills: speaking, reading, writing and listening.

The pass mark for this module is 40%; however, students must achieve the minimum equivalent of 5.5 IELTS to succeed.
