ENGL 032 - Composition Studio ESL

3 Credit Hours

This course is designed to give English as a Second Language students additional support and instruction as they are concurrently enrolled in English Composition I. Further instruction will include an organized method for writing essays that contain sufficient support for a solid thesis, clear organization of ideas, effective sentence structure, appropriate word choice, and a strong command of the conventions of writing, including standard grammar, correct punctuation, and appropriate paragraphing. Students will also improve English reading skills and be prepared for college courses that are reading intensive.

ENGL 032 Composition Studio ESL and ENGL 101 English Composition I are co-requisite courses and must be taken together during the same semester. If a student who is enrolled in ENGL 032 and ENGL 101 withdraws or is withdrawn from either course, he or she will also be withdrawn from the co-requisite course.

Should a student fail ENGL 101 and earn a passing grade in ENGL 032, it will be up to the Composition Studio ESL instructor to determine on a case-by-case basis if ENGL 032 will also be required when the student attempts ENGL 101 again.
