Do you know of current or incoming international students who wish to practice their English conversation skills during the summer? If so, the GLAS Track A schedule is now available. Students may sign up for a weekly recurring online appointment by visiting the GLAS webpage.
Graduate Language Assessment and Support (GLAS) is a free program designed for international graduate students who wish to improve their English oral communication skills.
Through small-group conversations that matter, students gain experience participating in class discussions, responding to questions and listening effectively. GLAS coaches work with students to help them better understand U.S. university expectations and gain insight into what students and instructors expect from each other in classrooms. GLAS students who are already teaching can practice lectures or lab presentations with their coach.
All international students and scholars are welcome to attend and participate in the program.
