Recent Feedback

“The FOCAL SKILLS approach has transformed my approach to ESL.”

“This approach has great potential to overcome many of the problems we are facing with placement and promotion through our program. From an instructional perspective, it is also very sound.”

FOCAL SKILLS includes program design principles and guidelines, recommendations for teaching methodologies and materials, and a placement test system.

FOCAL SKILLS was developed in the 1980s and first implemented at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.  It has also been used at a number of other colleges and universities in the U.S. and abroad.

FOCAL SKILLS is not a product. You don't need a license to use the approach. Information about the approach is freely available on this website, related sites, and from FOCAL SKILLS programs.
