Reading
Mission College's Reading courses are designed to meet students where they are at and help them to advance in their reading comprehension, reading fluency and critical thinking skills.
The ability to read, think critically about and apply knowledge learned from complex texts is so important to students’ success, we recommend taking Reading coursework early in your college career. The skills learned can help with reading, writing, learning and critical thinking in other courses.
