Learning outcomes
|
This is the first semester of a four-semester course for students with a pre-intermediate level of English. The course concentrates on practicing all the communication forms: speaking, listening, reading and writing so that the students are not only able to communicate on the general English level but also to express themselves on topics related to their main study subjects, i.e. psychology (history of psychology, general psychology). By attending the course and passing the exam, students will reach the B1 level as defined by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
Competences: reading, writing, listening and speaking (units 1-6) + complementary materials related to the field of study. By attending the four-term course (APSM1-4) and passing the exam, students will reach B1 level as defined by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
