LTC students receive Powerland Computers awards for EAL achievements
Powerland Computers has recognized a pair of Red River College students for their progress and achievements in English as an Additional Language (EAL) studies.
Language Training Centre students Anna Lofichenko and Yevgeniya Gavrys each received $500 as part of the awards, which are presented annually to two RRC students who successfully complete the EAL program.
Both Lofichenko (above, left) and Gavrys (right) are currently enrolled in RRC’s Academic English Program for University and College Entrance (AEPUCE), which means their next step will be post-secondary education in their respective fields.
Lofichenko was previously in RRC’s Communication for Health Professions program (formerly English for Health Care Aides), while Gavrys was in the Communication for Professionals program (formerly English for Professional Purposes).
Both students were nominated for the award by their instructors, who cited their academic achievement, attendance, positive attitudes, independence and engagement with fellow students as contributing factors.
