Computer practice is given in each subject area, but there is special emphasis on writing and speaking skills.

CMAR* (CONVERSATION MANAGEMENT AND ACCENT REDUCTION)
MLI’s Conversation Management and Accent Reduction Class (CMAR) is a comprehensive pronunciation course covering all the major consonant and vowel sounds in the English language. The class is structured to allow for group practice but also for guided one-on-one assistance from the teacher. In addition to guided pronunciation practice, listening components ensure that the students can aurally recognize the sounds that they are being asked to replicate.
