Know The Language

The phenomenon known as globalization has been called by some "Americanization" (Hook, 2005, p. 288). American culture is the driving force creating the desire for acquiring English language skills. Several characteristics of the United States have made it the center of globalization (Nye, 2004, p. 41). The internet is anchored predominately in American culture.

This makes the United States a laboratory for cultural experimentation where different traditions are recombined and exported. In addition, because of the size of the...  [Read more]

Essentially, an accrediting body is an independent third party who conducts a thorough review of the course provider's academic and professional standards, and if satisfied they provide their accreditation. When researching potential courses you should look out for...  [Read more]

Situational presentation refines the context and thus the meaning by building a 'situation' around the model sentence.
