ENGLISH SPEAKING & LISTENING

Would you like to develop your English speaking skills in an international student team online? English Speaking and Listening is aimed at students who wish to improve their pronunciation in English, learn to listen to and comprehend spoken English better, and who want to improve their skills in online collaboration and the use of contemporary online discussion tools. The course is suitable for all students from all degree programmes as well as exchange students, as the teaching language of the course is English.

This is a fully online course with no classroom meetings, and it will be carried out in collaboration with Masaryk University, Czech Republic. This means that half of the students in the course will be from another country – internationality is guaranteed! The course consists of both working in small groups, and also some individual tasks. Even though the course has a schedule with set deadlines, the students also get to work independently and schedule their own work, so it is suitable to be studied alongside mandatory courses.

Enroll to the course through Pakki by March 8th (course code NV00CR09, implementation number 3013). The course is 3 ECTS and will be completed by the summer. For additional information, please see the course description.

The course is also available for TAU students through the Service for Cross-Institutional Studies.
