A Home for Students from Around the World
ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE (ESL) OFFERINGS
Since our founding, St. Thomas More has proudly enrolled international students. Our international students continue to be an important part of the diverse community at STM, bringing fresh ideas and perspectives to classroom discussions and student life.
Prior to enrollment, we will consider students’ English proficiency test scores for placement in our highly successful ESL Program.
For students with limited English proficiency, we have a proven introductory ESL I Course. This course aims to build the skills necessary for students to succeed in mainstream classes. Once core skills have been mastered, students can move to our ESL II Course, which focuses on providing students with advanced reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills.
