This course builds the skills that help you do reading research in English. At Level 1, you learn how to: — predict content; — deal with new words; — follow instructions; — recognise dates and periods; — locate information within a text; — identify the topic sentences; — skim the topic sentences for the main points; — understand chronological markers; — understand simple discourse markers; — understand pronoun reference; — understand simple lexical cohesion; — transfer information from a text to a chart; — read actively. As well as preparing students for entry into English-medium study, the Skills in English Course is ideal for students who wish to improve their scores in skills-based examinations for university entry requirements, such as the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). Rather than focusing on exam preparation, Skills in English teaches the necessary skills as part of a systematic programme of language development.
