As part of our new College and Career Readiness course, our students participated in the UNCW Career Fair and utilized it as an important opportunity to apply the skills they've been learning in class. During the course, students strengthen their professional English communication skills while learning college-readiness strategies, interviewing techniques, and developing essential application materials such as CVs and resumes. Through these activities, students build the confidence and practical tools needed to pursue further education and transition successfully into professional settings.

We’re proud to celebrate Emre and Ryan from our Advanced English class! ✨

They chose to enter the university library’s FlashLit Writing Competition, and both of their works were selected for publication in the official anthology — a fantastic achievement!

FlashLit challenges students to submit original short-form writing that follows strict contest guidelines, giving them real-world experience writing for an authentic audience.

At the ELC, we’re committed to creating meaningful opportunities beyond the classroom — and we love seeing our students share their voices with the wider community.

Congratulations, Ryan and Emre!
