Transitional ESL Reading and Writing is a transitional level reading and writing course for non-native speakers of English.  The course provides practice activities to improve vocabulary, speed, comprehension, and usage of a monolingual dictionary. Students read longer passages with a variety of topics, sources, and purposes, including reading for pleasure.  Students at this level focus on elements of several types of paragraphs and begin writing 3-4 paragraph essays.  As a final writing assignment, students are expected to write a cohesive four-paragraph essay. Students who complete this course are ready for collegiate-level courses and career training.
