 note = {This is a preliminary study to assess students' English language needs in terms of individual skills and the skills required for carrying out an authentic international collaborative event. Furthermore, this study will seek to clarify the role of the English Support Center, the English Lounge, in providing English language assistance both before and during this event. The role of the Center and Learning Advisor in the authentic international collaborative event has been to provide English language assistance on a drop-in basis as well as giving English presentation skills lectures at the event. This study will focus on one work group, made up of first and second year presenters, as this group requires strong English skills to prepare and deliver an English presentation in partnership with students from overseas. The study will rely on scholarly sources, emails, Facebook comments, and surveys of current and former students, interviews with senior students as well as observations by the Learning Advisor both prior to and during the W.Y.M. 2012 on August 7th and 8th. The results of this study will be used to provide direction to the English Support Center, the English Lounge, leading to improvement in the service delivery prior to and during the event. Furthermore, based on the findings this researcher wants to propose areas where English Lounge classes, activities and counseling could be modified to provide better event specific support for one group, the first year presenters and other first year students as well.},
