Language Coaching Available



What is language coaching?

Athletes have coaches to help them improve their game or increase their performance.  Language coaching is similar – it is coaching to help you become a better language learner and get the powerful results you are looking for while studying at VIU. 

 

Features of language coaching:

·        Meet five times with a language coach in the semester, 25 minutes each time.

·     Explore ways to excel as a language learner and as a second–language academic student

·     Focus on goals and solutions in your language learning experience

·     Learn about available resources and opportunities that are in place to assist you in your learning journey

·     Discuss any problems and concerns you may have in your studies in a solution-oriented way

·      Discover ways to navigate through the Canadian university experience with greater joy and ease.

Note: language coaching is NOT tutoring. We will not be working on specific assignments, but rather will be looking at ways to improve your effectiveness as a language learner.
