FA, SP. Each American or Canadian student partners with someone, usually a Calvin seminarian or spouse, for whom English is a foreign language. While the ESL partner has opportunity to practice spoken English and learn about the American culture, the American/Canadian student has opportunity to learn about the life and culture of their international partner. Class meets two times at the beginning of the semester. Partners meet for conversation throughout the semester. This course meets the cross-cultural engagement core requirement.
