Classes focus on reading, vocabulary, writing, listening, speaking, grammar, and study skills.
Students at the ELI have full access to all services offered by The University of Akron including campus libraries, sports facilities, recreation areas and weekly movies. In addition, ELI students will use the ELI's Macintosh computer lab in classes. Every student is given an internet e-mail address and can use the computer lab to work on homework or surf the web. Students who have their own computer and modem can connect to the university system from home at no cost and use e-mail or surf the web from home.
