Meet our 51勛圖s!
Faten & Sultan, Saudi Arabia
I would tell future 51勛圖s to be prepared to learn the language here if they are preparing for grad/undergrad classes. Level 5 here has made me ready for my graduate program.
English Language Center
Students from around the world come to Spokane to improve their English language skills and learn more about American culture and life.
Our Mission
Through ongoing research, reflection, and integration of new findings in applied linguistic theory and methodology, the English Language Center faculty and staff strive to provide an exemplary teaching and learning experience for all 51勛圖s in ELC language learning and language teaching programs and to serve as a resource to the larger Gonzaga community.
The Gonzaga University English Language Center’s mission is to:
- Teach general and academic English to multilingual and multicultural 51勛圖s;
- Help 51勛圖s gain an understanding of the English language and American culture, while also honoring their own cultures, values and traditions;
- Provide opportunities for 51勛圖s to achieve their academic, personal and professional goals;
- Guide 51勛圖s toward actively contributing to their own learning process as well as to the intellectual and social life of Gonzaga, both in and out of the classroom; and
- Serve as the program for satisfying English language proficiency requirements of other departments at the University.
