Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada

The main purpose of the LINC and EEELS programs is to develop communication through reading, speaking, listening and writing so that each student is able to integrate into Canadian society with ease and is able to become a self-sufficient member of his or her community. Language training is provided in Levels 1 to 8 and is based on Canadian Language Benchmark standards.

Participants practice oral communication in multi-level presentations, aided by computer-based language training.

The learners acquire basic English skills in small groups and/or individualized learning (when necessary). Various teaching styles are used including communicative, thematic and functional approaches.

The program is funded by Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
