C1 Advanced Starter is the first module in a two-semester course preparing advanced users for the "Cambridge English: C1 Advanced" (CAE) exam. This course is suited to participants who seek a thorough, gradual introduction to the C1 Advanced exam. In addition to a review of language skills, participants are introduced to exam techniques for the four papers (Reading and Use of English, Writing, Listening and Speaking). The Starter module offers students guidelines enabling them to continue their own self-study preparation towards the exam. It also lays the foundation for participation in the follow-up C1 Advanced Booster module, which will be offered the following semester.
NB: The Booster course in the next semester might not be on the same day in the same timeslot.
Prospective participants are advised to contact the Language Center for consultation about suitable intensive courses during the semester break that will prepare them for this course. Participants needing grammar training can also attend "English: Advanced Grammar and Vocabulary" during the semester.
