Conversations are indispensable to our academic, professional, and personal lives. This course for students and staff trains conversation skills in a convivial atmosphere. While exploring a range of contemporary issues, participants will have the opportunity to get to know a small group of people from diverse parts of the university. Ample speaking practice will ensure advances in fluency and confidence, and every week the instructor will provide individualized feedback on grammar and vocabulary as well as relevant exercises. In addition, the group will reflect on interaction skills, review set phrases for conversation, and train their listening competence using videos and podcasts.
There will be maximum ten participants.
