English Language Support

English Language Learner/English for Academic Purposes (EAP) Services

Our tutors can help ESL students develop their language skills.

What We Offer:

  • We help students to develop reading and writing skills
  • We run conversation and pronunciation sessions to practice speaking and listiening

All Humber and Guelph-Humber English language learners can receive help with any of these topics and more:

  • grammar from basic to advanced
  • essay development
  • business correspondence
  • building vocabulary
  • developing listening and speaking skills through conversation practice

Book one of our tutors by going to humber.upswing.io and logging in with your Humber username and password and selecting either "general writing support" or "conversation one-on-one" as your course. Or simply visit us during our drop-in times (no appointment necessary).
