Upcoming event at HCC


HCC Professor of ESL, Vivian Leskes, worked on an English Language Specialist Program for the US Department of State in May and June 2009 in Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Russia.  During the trip, she trained English secondary and university teachers in the communicative approach to teaching the five ESL skills:  reading, writing, speaking, listening, and culture.  Associate Professor of Photography, Frank Ward, accompanied her on this journey. 

On March 10 in KC 303 at 11AM, Leskes will offer "Checkmate:  Your Visa Has Been Cancelled," a presentation on the joys and confusions of an inter-cultural teachers' exchange in Central Asia.  Ward's photographs will accompany the talk.
