Description

The present project is based on a study that measured four factors that could affect academic satisfaction in English as a Second Language (ESL) students: English proficiency, cultural inclusion, connectedness to school, and faculty relationships. The results from this study were used to directly benefit ESL students by creating teaching resources and providing training to faculty and tutors across campus. During two of the tutor sessions provided as training, tutors at EKU provided feedback on the helpfulness of the session, advice for ESL students, and advice for professors at the university. This feedback was analyzed and will be discussed in this poster.
