The aim of the course is to help students to devolop their communicative and linguistic competence corresponding to their needs and professional interests, so that they are able to function effectively in the target language environment. Students should be able to demonstrate growth in ability to listen, speak, read and write clearly using specialised vocabulary that is commonly used within their field of academic study (ideally progressing towards C1-level). |

The classes will be conducted in English. The primary emphasis of the course is on communication. We shall use relevant authentic materials (content-based learning) and work on various tasks (task/project-based learning) mainly in groups since group work naturally requires that students communicate and interact with others. Apart from working on and presenting "one-session" projects, students will also work on and present several "ongoing" projects (e.g. public speech, panel discussion, round table, academic presentation, mini-seminar, etc.). Reading field-related articles and academic texts, watching videos, following/listening to lectures and talks, discussion and writing summaries, homework assignments and the learners' own learning agenda shall be integral part of our sessions. |
