Join us for a conversation with Candace Bailey Combs, Learning Support Specialist and ESL Coordinator at the Learning Commons.

Candace, along with new peer mentors in the ESL Center, has been preparing first year students for the new demands of college level reading. Uncovering how students read and bringing their experiences out in to the open has introduced a starting point for creating more sophisticated (and speedy) readers. Let’s talk about effective reading strategies and discuss how teachers implement high standards for reading comprehension even as page counts climb higher and higher.
