This educational atmosphere and the academic expectations accompanying it necessitate that all students have certain critical skills. Because these skills are determined by both this educational and a variety of ministry environments, the LRWC also seeks to provide a rich global and theological context which makes learning here a relevant undertaking for today's seminary students. A critical way in which the LRWC both helps seminary students improve their communicative skills and advances cross-cultural learning is through individual peer tutoring services.
Tutors work with students to improve their conversation, reading, and writing skills.
The length and number of tutoring sessions depends upon the needs of the particular student. The LRWC offers classes and workshops which help students improve their language and critical thinking skills. The LRWC provides opportunities for people from the various seminary communities to gather together to share in cross cultural dialogue and social activities. Picnic and community dinners Movie Nights Trips to Chicago's museums and cultural centers Additional activities throughout the academic year.
