VB040 is a course for all students who want to improve their presentation skills. Its aim is to give students a lot of practice in advanced language and communication skills and to help them communicate more effectively by improving their grammatical knowledge and developing IT-related vocabulary. It can be used as an additional course to VB036 (which has classes only every other week) or at any point in your studies when you want more confidence in presenting your professional and academic ideas in English. Main objectives can be summarized as follows: to increase your active IT vocabulary; to develop essential communication skills such as giving presentations and taking part in discussions; to improve fluency through discussion activities; to give confidence in using English.
