An ESL tutoring session at Red Deer Polytechnic is a one-to-one session with our ESL Tutor. Referrals are not required.
Sessions are generally 45-60 minutes in length. During the session, you will discuss your needs and learn how to develop your skills in order to reach your goals. At the end of your session, you may decide to visit the ESL Tutor again or you may be connected with another resource at RDP.
The ESL Tutor focuses on building academic language proficiency for English language learners. Sessions may include a mix of grammar instruction, vocabulary development, and conversation/pronunciation. Students may receive support with course work including reading course material, determining what an assignment is asking, planning and writing an outline, revising and editing assignments, and preparing for presentations.
