LEAP Level 5

In LEAP 5, students are introduced to note-taking techniques using adapted and authentic readings and listenings. They learn to recognize levels of information and types of support in academic style texts and lectures. Students practice previewing, analyzing questions, and developing ideas to answer these questions. Different styles of academic paragraph writing and longer academic writing, such as the 5-paragraph essay, are core components of this level. Registration in this course is restricted to students admitted to the Langara English for Academic Purposes program.
