Main themes

The topics addressed during the classes aim at arousing the interests of young adults: we shall speak about hobbies, leisure, holidays, studies and possible future professions, daily life and contemporary events, trips and relations with others, and the culture (that is, the habits and customs) of the countries that speak the target language.

Aims

By the end of the course, the student should have reached an upper-intermediate level in three areas: listening, reading, and speaking (both individual and interactive). This course is not open to beginners.
