Language Lab
WELCOME BACK TO THE LANGUAGE LAB, HUSKIES!
We are so glad to have you back on campus! The Language Lab has resumed in-person services. Whether in person or online, we have tutoring available to support you. If you are visiting us on campus, don't forget to complete the Cleared4 daily symptom self-check questionnaire. After you complete the questionnaire, you will receive a "CLEAR PASS" that is required for entry to the campus and its facilities.
And for your safety and ours, face masks are required at all times when visiting our premises.
We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to seeing you!
The Language Lab is a space dedicated to all ELAC students (credit and Non-credit) with services that support and promote second language acquisition and global cultural awareness.
We strive to provide interactive and independent activities that fit each student's learning style and individual needs.
As language is a skill requiring continuous use, we offer ongoing tutoring support and weekly workshops, web resources and software to keep your practice continual.
The following services are available:
