Detailed Course Content
The course aims to develop communicative self-sufficiency of participants in international and multicultural contexts. It will be based on grammar and practical activities (reading and comprehension of texts; listening; oral and written production). Through the use of audiovisual learning material and role play activities, we intend to enhance the lexical skills and develop critical and analytical skills in a foreign language.
The course starts with an entrance test in order to evaluate the initial knowledge level of the attendees and to orientate the teaching in a targeted and functional way to the real needs of the students.
