Learning outcomes of the course :
|
| In agreement with the ILOs, the course aims at developing and strengthening the four language skills (oral and written expression, listening and reading comprehension). The objective is to help the students who do not have a sufficient level of English (or who haven't studied English for some time), to reach the B2 level (the required level to attend the course English part 2). |

|
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
|
| The course particularly insists on practising English.
The oral communication course will propose listening and speaking activities thanks to discussions, role plays, presentations and case studies. Vocabulary activities will also be done.
In the written communication course, the students' assignments will serve as a basis for the revision of the grammar.
The reading comprehension skill will be developed in both parts of the course (the texts read in class will be the basis for discussions and writing exercises). |
|
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
|
| The course is taught face-to-face, with 4h a week (2x2h).
Students are required to prepare some exercises at home. |
|
Recommended or required readings :
|
| The grammatical theory and the exercises, as well as the notes on the writing skills and on the oral communication skills are to be found in the syllabus "APM: English (part one)", which will be available at the Centrale.
