Learn a Language!
The Brookhaven College World Languages Division offers language courses for anyone who wishes to learn a different
language. “Foreign” languages, both ancient and modern, are offered in addition to programs in English such
as American Sign Language and English for Speakers of Other Languages.
Exact course offerings vary per semester, so check
eConnect or the online course schedules for current availability.
The ESOL credit curriculum is designed to develop a student’s pre-academic language proficiency in the areas of
listening, speaking, reading and writing. The plan of study consists of 16 courses divided into four proficiency levels
and four skill areas: listening-speaking, reading, writing and grammar. The credit curriculum is designed to interface
both with other ESOL programs and with developmental studies or college-level programs on each Dallas County Community
College campus. A student enters this program by taking an English
placement test and then by being placed in courses by a specially trained academic advisor through the
Multicultural Center in the Student Services Center, Buildng S.
