Teaching for comprehension
We’ve transformed the way students meet graduate reading requirements. APRI offers a series of online seminars that deliver career-enhancing comprehension skills instead of the ability to merely translate texts. Our seminars quickly and effectively teach students to read and comprehend discipline-specific scholarly texts in a second language, which will serve them well throughout their academic careers.
Testing for real-world skills
Unlike traditional assessments that focus solely on translation skills, the Academic Reading Comprehension AssessmentTM (ARCA) is an innovative tool that measures the ability to analytically read and synthesize information from scholarly resources. Students who enroll in our seminars have a 95% pass rate on the ARCA, providing certification of their knowledge, skills and abilities.
Language skills for professionals
