Classes at the ARC Natomas Center
In Fall 2005, the ESL department began offering classes
at the ARC Natomas Center (map).
In Spring 2009, we will be offering two sections each of ESL L 20, R
20, and W 20, and ESL L 30, R 30 and W 30. We will also be offering
one section each of ESL L 40, R 40, W 40 and one section each of ESL
L 50, R 50, and W 50. In addition, sections in the ESL Center will be
offered Monday, Wednesday and Friday. One section of ESL 350 taught
completely online will be offered. To find out more about the Natomas
Center, go to the
Natomas Center website.
Hybrid Classes
Since Fall 2002, the ESL department has been offering hybrid
classes. These classes meet one day a week on campus and the rest of
the class work is done online at the class website. Hybrid classes can
use the many resources on the Internet to add current and interesting
information to the courses. You will learn helpful ways to continue
your English studies online even after your class is finished.
