These non-credit support classes are grounded in principles of effective academic speaking practice, and may be tied to content in certain program areas.
During the Fall & Winter semesters, ECS classes are offered as a co-curricular element of the LNG-111 course (Department of English). ECS classes enhance the speaking skills of multilingual students, as well as giving students enrolled in LNG-111 an opportunity to better understand the course content through discussion activities and in-class presentations.
Although some content is tied to LNG-111, ECS classes are open to all Ryerson students who use English as an additional language.
Fall 2013: All sessions are at an INTERMEDIATE level of English
If you are a student in LNG-111 and are unable to attend an ECS section, your LNG-111 instructor will give you an alternate assignment.
