How CLEAR Helps Students
The Center for Language Exploration, Acquisition and Research (CLEAR) promotes and facilitates AU students' acquisition and enrichment of language skills and cultural competency by
- providing language coaching free of charge to students currently enrolled in a language course taught at American University
- hosting language-related cultural events throughout the academic year
- advancing the professional development of the World Languages and Cultures faculty
- curating a growing collection of language-related resources
- developing and administering language assessments
To fulfill its mission, CLEAR's patron-focused staff are here to connect language coaches and students, ensure the positive enhancement of the language learning experience through the use of technology, and to foster an environment which emphasizes global sensitivity and values the multicultural diversity of our campus.
