Course Description

The ESL Bridge Program is closely connected to the local community through field trips and experiential learning. Students connect with the natural environment through rock climbing, skiing, curling, nature walks, and visits to regional parks and forests. Cultural activities include guided visits to art galleries, museums, lectures, theatre performances, and historic sites. Exceptional Faculty The ESL Bridge Program faculty and tutors are all ESL certified and highly experienced. Fleming's teachers and tutors have earned Master’s degrees in language education, are licensed public school teachers, have published textbooks, trained other ESL teachers, and all have enjoyed working with students in Canada and across the world. English language education is their passion! Making Friends is Easy: The program is small, yet includes students from all over the world. The English Language Bridge Program is based on current research into proven methods of learning a new language. It is designed to support individual rather than communal learning, recognizing that students differ in the skills and knowledge they bring to the program and progress at different rates. The program is held at Fleming’s Sutherland Campus, in Peterborough. PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS 8 levels of English skills development: Each level is 8 weeks in length and each week consists of 24 hours of instructor-led classes as well as tutoring and experiential learning opportunities. The ELB program integrates the listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills needed to succeed in a post-secondary environment.
