Summary
This posting is a pool for those interested in teaching pre-college level and college credit Multilingual English Learner (MEL)/ESL courses such as Academic Intermediate Reading ESL (ENGL 083), Academic Intermediate Writing ESL (ENGL 084), Advanced Oral Communication ESL (ENGL 085), Advanced Academic English (ENGL 109), and College Composition ESL (ENGL 121 E), and/or Information Literacy ESL (INFO 100 E) offered at HCC. Together, these courses cover intermediate and advanced levels of reading, writing, and speaking skills for MEL/ESL students as well as researching and using information. The Department Head, Course Coordinators, and ENGL Program Manager will review applicants for these positions when a need arises.
ENGL 083: Academic Intermediate Reading ESL: In this course, reading comprehension and vocabulary skill building are approached as integral parts of an ESL student's overall English language learning, not as isolated skills. Students will develop their ability to read, analyze, and respond to varied reading genres (appropriate for intermediate learners of English), including selections with diverse global perspectives.
ENGL 084: Academic Intermediate Writing ESL: In this course, students will acquire the English language skills needed to produce paragraphs at an intermediate proficiency level. A variety of reading selections and discussion activities will serve to prepare students to compose paragraphs that demonstrate critical thinking. Writing themes will help students to develop a global awareness. Paragraph development will progress to the production of an organized essay. Grammatical skills will be developed through formal instruction, group editing, and computer-assisted instruction.
ENGL 085: Advanced Oral Communication: In this course, students will develop the listening and speaking skills needed for academic success. Class work will consist of pronunciation practice, listening activities, small group and class discussions of selected readings and lectures, oral presentations, and simulations of aspects of academic life.
ENGL 109: Academic Reading and Writing ESL: In this advanced English language learning course, multilingual English learners improve their academic skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Students study and analyze works of fiction and nonfiction while refining their language skills and engaging in cultural analysis. Students will learn organizational structures for cohesive oral presentations and written compositions using effective English language skills.
ENGL 121 E College Composition: This transfer-level writing course teaches MEL/ESL students to develop and apply rhetorical knowledge for creating effective text-based communication. Students develop critical inquiry and multi-stage writing processes in order to contribute productively, effectively, and ethically to the social and collaborative practices of academic and other discourses.
INFO 100 E: Information literacy and College Success: This course teaches MEL/ESL students a core of information literacy and critical thinking skills that will transfer to other coursework and will help them to reach academic and professional goals. Students will learn and refine strategies for college success and will strengthen their capacity for effective academic and professional communication and use of information resources.
Adjunct faculty may teach 1-3 courses each semester, depending on schedule and availability. Preference given to candidates who can teach face-to-face.
