COURSE DETAILS
Introduction:
This course aims to provide students of Economics and Business Studies with the opportunity to improve speaking, listening and reading skills in particular, with regard to their field of study. To this end, a range of topics will be covered, depending on the needs and interests of the students, and could include, for example, economics and ecology, gender in business, and Global Business English skills. In week 1, we will discuss potential topics.
Key language skills will be practiced / reviewed (reading and listening strategies, presentation skills). We will also look at ‘learning to learn’ to enhance independent language learning strategies, and additional activities will aim to expand vocabulary, refresh grammar and improve style. Material will be taken from diverse authentic sources.
