Center for English Language Education(CELE)

OUR MISSION

The Center for English Language Education at Asia University fosters internationalism -- the belief that people of different countries should cooperate with and understand one another. Cooperation and intercultural understanding begin with communication and knowledge. Educating students to communicate in a foreign language with people from different cultures allows them to investigate the world in a new way and provides the foundation for lifelong intercultural exchanges.

ABOUT CELE

亚洲大学（AU）英语教育中心是亚洲大学的一个部门，位于日本东京武藏野市。1989年，英语教育研究所（ELERI）由前亚洲大学校长江藤信吉教授创立。江藤教授认为国际主义是亚洲大学教育使命中最重要的方面。因此，他认为学生的外语交际能力是他们国际化不可或缺的一部分。1998年，该系更名为英语语言教育中心。今天， CELE 很自豪能够继承和扩展大学的国际教育理念。

OUR COURSES

Freshman English

Freshman English is an integrated-skills, topic-based EFL course with an emphasis on speaking and listening skills. Students will engage in reading and writing activities to reinforce their oral/aural skills; however, the primary course goal is developing students’ English conversation ability. While the primary course goals are the same for all class levels, teachers address specific objectives according to class level and students’ English proficiency.

Additional Classes

CELE faculty also teach Sophomore English and Elective English classes. Sophomore English is a content-based course that aims to provide a general introduction to the field of International Relations. It is a required course for all second-year International Relations students. Elective English classes are for students of any year or major at the university. The general purpose of elective classes is to continue to improve the overall communications skills students develop in Freshman English.

CELE JOURNAL

This is an annual publication providing an in-house forum for current and former faculty members to share their insights and research. We include articles from scholars at both Asia University and the Asia University America Program consortium schools.
