In class, students will be working on their writing skills by writing grammar dictations as a group activity. They will further develop their reading skills (extra material provided) and work on their vocabulary.
Learning outcomes
On completion of the course students will be able to conduct lessons entirely in English, they will be able to analyze and assess the effectiveness of various activities, and will also have experience in creating their own. Their language skills will have further developed toward C1 level.
