FLC Introduction
The Foreign Language Center (FLC) of I-Shou University (ISU) was founded in August 2002. The Center’s primary mission is to provide I-Shou University students, faculty members, and staff with a wide range of English/foreign language courses and testing services. The available General English courses aim to assist students to increase their English proficiency and to prepare students to move into academic English coursework or English-only content courses. The foreign language courses, such as Japanese, Korean, French, German, Vietnamese, Thai, and Indonesian, aim to offer students extra communication options to acquire multi-language skills. FLC students will be able to enhance their language skills, broaden their worldview, and become more competitive in a globalized workplace. All of the courses are taught by highly qualified instructors who support students’ language learning goals.
To ensure our students’ English proficiency, FLC also provides various English testing services. Standardized English tests, such as TOEIC, GEPT, CSEPT, etc., serve as the language threshold for graduation from ISU. Students who pass such tests will have great satisfaction in their academic studies. Success on language-based standardized tests is about more than just fluency or achieving confidence in using English. Furthermore, testing will provide concrete language evidence to students’ future employers.
In addition to the numerous language courses and tests offered, FLC provides opportunities for students to practice English outside of the classroom, like the “English Corner”, “English Song Competition”, “Language Clubs”, and “English Reading-aloud Competition”. Students may learn more by participating in these extra-curricular language activities and have more chances for a socio-cultural exchange experience.
