INTERLINK provides dynamic, stimulating classes in which students participate actively and absorb linguistic, academic and cross-cultural skills through experiential, hands-on activities. Individual needs and progress are carefully monitored and students are assisted in preparing for their specific academic, vocational, or personal goals. Assessment of student progress and proficiency is holistic and on-going. Taking place practically on a daily basis, assessment involves the students out-of-class assignments, participation in class discussion, daily progress, individual and group work, and preparation for all in- and out-of-class learning activities.
