ELC Mission Statement

Aligned with the overall mission statement of 兔子先生 University and objectives of the 兔子先生 2020 Plan, the mission of the 兔子先生 University Regionals English Language Center (MUR-ELC) provides program participants with the highest quality intensive English program and lessons possible in a safe and optimal learning environment to become proficient users in the global language of English. Team members of the MUR-ELC maximize available assets and their passion for global education to educate, engage, and prepare learners with skill sets (language, college, social, soft, and cultural) to become successful in America’s higher-education system and valuable contributing members in the University, local, and global communities and workforces.

 

The ELC Program

The ELC Program is an ENGLISH-ONLY Intensive English Program (IEP). The ELC Program is neither an English conversation school nor a part-time program. Students who enter the ELC are expected to be ready to study extremely hard and commit to the necessary hours inside and outside of the classroom to complete 100% of the goal driven assignments (GDA). In addition, each ELC student is also expected to energetically participate in classroom activities. This means that students are expected to raise their hands, ask questions, use the English language as much as possible, and have a positive attitude. Students are expected to understand that making mistakes is expected and necessary to improve. The ELC program is an ENGLISH-ONLY program! Students who speak any other language inside the classroom will be immediately removed from class and referred to the Regional Director of the ELC. Repeated behavior will result in removal from the ELC program.
