English Education Major

Bachelor of Science Degree

Students with teacher

A good English background is basic to a good education. God gave men the ability to analyze their own words into patterns and structures that can be studied and organized to communicate better. Therefore, we teach grammatical rules and conventional patterns as the best productive manner to promote proper communication. Good writing skills are the result of a good English program. The study of classic literature refl ects what man has done with God’s gift of thought and language, and expresses in artistic form the great moral forces which stimulate many activities of human life.

Academic Program Fee: $80 per semester or $20 per payment.
