English as a Second Language (ESOL) - International English - Level 3
Entry Requirements: For International Students and for Students whose first language is not English.
Course Outline:
Level 3 International English students continue to work towards gaining the Literacy credits needed for University Entrance. They can achieve UE through the Level 2 English assessments and the Level 4 English for Academic Purposes standards, as well as through Achievement Standards in other subjects (e.g. Economics, Biology). Students are required to write an essay about a researched topic and complete an extended reading assignment. Individual students are guided by their teachers according to their needs. Students are allocated time to study for additional examinations which they may need to complete for international universities.
Students who wish to study in English-speaking universities outside of New Zealand may also be looking for an IELTS, SAT, TOEFL or TOEIC Qualification. They can opt to use class time in ESOL to prepare for this.
