Dear UM Students,

We hope you are all safe and well.

ELC is committed to supporting our students to “Keep Learning amid Class Suspension” and is implementing distance learning and academic guidance from Tuesday, February 11^th onward.

Current ELC students – Online classes start on February 11th

Current ELC students please follow the same course schedule this semester for online classes and consultations from Tuesday, February 11^th onward. Weekly Talk Time tutorials will be conducted online from Monday, February 17th onward. We will send you further instruction via email and UM Moodle on how to access your respective virtual classroom and consultation platform. We look forward to seeing you virtually in just a few days!

First-year students – “English for Universities” e-learning platform

First-year students who have taken ELC courses are eligible to access the “English for Universities” e-learning platform via https://um.i-learner.com.hk/. We will continue to email you tips and advice for improving English using this platform.

All UM students – MOOC, Moodle and ELC English learning workshops

If you are not current ELC students, but want to improve your English online, we have the following recommendations:

1. Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC)

https://next.xuetangx.com 學堂在線
https://www.coursera.org/

These are free and quality university-level courses. Search for “English” or “Academic English” on the sites to browse courses. We particularly recommend this 學堂在線 course created by UM teachers: 创意 Creativity(2020春), this course includes Creative Writing where you can let your imagination and English writing run free!

2. UM Moodle site: English Language Centre - Independent Learning Site

All UM students have access to this ELC Moodle site, with recommendations to free online English learning resources worldwide. The site is currently under updates and will be available on February 11^th. Click “My courses” on UM Moodle to locate it.

3. ELC English learning workshops

ELC regularly conducts English learning workshops https://fah.um.edu.mo/elc/news/, we are working on converting some for online mode and will post new workshop announcements as soon as available.
