Reading and Listening Refresher Course

Instruction

All instruction is in small groups with a native speaking instructor who is familiar with the needs of US Government linguists including DLPT prep, FSI testing, etc. You'll meet your tutor, complete an initial assessment, and receive a custom skills refresh plan adapted to your needs throughout the course.

See a sample schedule ILR 2, ILR 2+ and ILR 3

In a typical session, you will work on:

• Analyzing complex texts (summarizing, inferring information and unknown vocabulary, identifying opinion, etc.)
• Building comfort with listening-specific difficulty drivers (fast speech, reduced forms, background noise, accents, etc.)
• Familiarizing yourself with events and topics relevant to US Government domains (politics, security, economy, etc.)
