What is Language Coaching? 

Athletes have coaches to help them improve their game or increase their performance.  Language coaching is similar – it is coaching to help you become a better language learner and get the powerful results you are looking for while studying at VIU .

Features of language coaching:

  • Meet five times with a language coach in the semester, 25 minutes each time every two weeks
  • Explore ways to excel as a language learner and as a second–language academic student
  • Focus on goals and solutions in your language learning experience
  • Learn about available resources and opportunities that are in place to assist you in your learning journey
  • Discuss any problems and concerns you may have in your studies in a solution-oriented way 
  • Discover ways to navigate through the Canadian university experience with greater joy and ease.

Note: language coaching is NOT tutoring. We will not be working on specific assignments, but rather will be looking at ways to improve your effectiveness as a language learner.

Coaching will occur on Tuesday and Thursday mornings and afternoons beginning September 15th and ending in November.
