 Auburn University
Intensive English Program AlabamaThe Auburn University Intensive English Program (IEP) offers
intensive English instruction, orientation to American culture, and TOEFL
(Test of English as a Foreign Language) preparation to international students
and scholars from throughout the world. This program is designed for those who
are not completely proficient in English and who would like to improve their
English skills in a pleasant, academic environment.
The IEP is open to persons eighteen years of age or older
who have already attained a basic knowledge of English. IEP participants are
students preparing for study in an American university, business people and
professionals seeking to improve their English communication skills, and
visitors to the United States who want to study English while becoming
familiar with American culture.
Course Description
The IEP offers 25 hours of intensive English language
training per week as follows: A Core Course (2 hours daily) consists of
instruction in English grammar, writing, and spoken communication skills.
Topics in American culture are covered in the Reading and Vocabulary class, which meets every day for one hour. A Conversation class meets daily for one
hour to practice English conversation skills and to reinforce the content of
the Reading Course. This course consists of spoken communication exercises
such as interviewing, small group discussions, role plays, and debates. A
practice TOEFL class meets three times per week, and practice TOEFL tests are
administered throughout the term. In order to keep the classes small, we limit
the class size to 15 students. In addition, IEP students are assigned two or
more hours each week in our computerized Language Lab for pronunciation
practice and reinforcement of speaking and listening skills. An ESL instructor
or teaching assistant supervises the Language Lab activities.
