Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)

The course is taught in-person: 2h/week in Q1 and 3h/week in Q2. 
Class attendance is vital.  Please take this into account when signing up for the course. 
Individual homework is focussed on the following aspects:
* Training and learning of the syntax and the new lexicon. 
* grammatical and lexical exercices to be done at home helps identify weaknesses and necessary remediation. 
* vocabulary training first calls for revision of the advanced lexicon of B2 and then for further learning through press articles dealt with in class (business world, news). 
* Preparing individual presentations.
* Readings as input for class discussions.
