PROGRAMME
This course
aims to extend students’ speaking and writing abilities. All students are
expected to participate actively. The course will cover a number of writing
skills including, summary writing and essay writing, incorporating elements of
academic writing. Public speaking skills include presentations and speech
making. Students are expected to reach a C1+ level in speaking and writing by
the end of the year
Students
must complete an assignment in order to take end of semester ‘esoneri’.
Additionally, 75% of lessons must be attended. 6 & 12 credit students take
the same exam.
Students
are expected to do a considerable amount of work as preparation for
lessons. Every two-hour lesson requires at least two hours of preparation as
private study. Students requesting to change alphabet division need to
send an explanatory e-mail to the teacher of their group copying it to the
teacher of the proposed group explaining the valid motive behind their request.
This must be done during the first two full weeks of lessons.
