Mission
Statement Global interdependence has created an unprecedented and urgent
need for better communication between individuals of diverse linguistic and cultural
backgrounds. INTERLINK Language Centers, Inc., has chosen to help meet that need
by committing its talents and energies to the intensive teaching of English, to
cultural orientation, and to academic preparation for those from other societies
wishing to work or study in the United States. more . . . |
Curriculum
Statement From its inception, INTERLINKs goals have been broader
and deeper than those of typical English language programs. Fostering cultural
awareness, personal growth and academic readiness has been as important to INTERLINK
as improving students linguistic skills. This curriculum views learning
not as the accumulation of data but as a dynamic process of personal growth. more

Cross-Cultural Statement INTERLINK
directors and teachers help students open wide the beckoning windows and doors
of Possibility. English language acquisition is the lever. Cross-cultural learning
is the view beyond. At INTERLINK, we invite and prepare the student to begin a
life-long pilgrimage of learning. It must begin well. Linguistic competency and
academic skills provide important preparation. But beyond these, INTERLINK's Mission
Statement calls on us to help our students learn to "bridge those precious
differences that give us roots and rudders in an ever shrinking and restless world."
