The LCC also maintains files on study-abroad opportunities, arranges for oral proficiency interviews and sponsors intercultural events. To help students gain proficiency, LCC instructors employ a variety of communicative approaches. Classroom work emphasizes cultural appropriateness of language and customs as well as grammatical accuracy.
Classes meet twice weekly throughout each academic semester.
Courses strive to lead students to maximum achievement in accordance with their ability, goals and objectives. Placement for fall classes depends on the results of language evaluations conducted during orientation week. Individual interviews may also be arranged. Students register for LCC courses during the general SIT registration process. Enrollment in this option may be limited depending on resources available, classes offered and program requirements.
