Students' Comments

"English 100 content, structure and mode of instruction was very beneficial for me. The content focuses on readings in introductory freshman level courses in order to enable the students to understand the basic elements of how to research a topic and express their ideas in good English within a structured essay. In my opinion,the strategies and techniques employed by English 100teachers encourage free thinking and creativity. In my opinion, these elements are essential to develop distinguished college students."

"English 100 helped me expand and deepen my thoughts by exposing me to various topics in different fields. It helped me with essay writing as well, so that now, I actually enjoy writing essays. Overall, it is an interesting and a useful course.

"From my personal experience, English 100 is a course that provides students with a strong base that facilitates the use of the language they would use throughout their life at AUC. The readings are based on curricula that keep students in touch with the courses they will take later. Since English 100 is a Pass/Fail course, students underestimate it; however; it is the most important course that enables students to comprehend future readings. The prospects of success in this course is high only if a student attends regularly and is up-to-date with the course requirements. The class is always interesting, as teachers use both enjoyable' methods and, various activities."

"The daily three-hour class of English 100 seems horrible to new students, but — trust me, once you experience it, you will see how interesting and meaningful the English 100 course is. I have definitely improved — but also in many other fields. This is because English 100 is divided into different rounds, each covering a section of human knowledge. Every session in this course was filled with different activities that enriched my knowledge and made the three hours pass quickly. I certainly enjoyed this course and I know you will too."

"English 100 is a remedial reading and writing course, and it is really remedial. After you complete it, you feel that you have a good command of the English language, especially in writing. English 100 is a course that needs continuous work in order to achieve a grade high enough to pass. You have to concentrate in class and be attentive to what the instructor says, for every piece of information is of high importance and might be useful in, the long run. The instructors are encouraging and are ready to help you understand or fix a problem that interferes with learning. English 100 integrates your reading and writing skills through many activities and exercises and allows your thinking skills to go beyond the traditional ways.''
