In this course, learners will improve their English speaking and listening skills.  Instruction, board game sessions, and self-study, are all important parts of this course.  During instruction, learners will practice speaking and listening skills with useful vocabulary and grammar. During board games, learners will use English to play with native speakers and other learners. Through self-study, learners will have additional opportunities to develop all skills (speaking, listening, reading, and writing). Cultural themes will be included throughout the course.
