This is a 6-week course which will help you improve your speaking skills. The course is for young adults and adults whose English is as at the A2 or B1 level according to the CEFR or at the preintermediate - intermediate level.
We speak to our family members, friends, colleagues at work, in millions of everyday situations. It is easy when we do it in our native language, but when we need to communicate in another language, in this case English, we face challenges. Technology can help a lot, but we need to fight the feeling of embarrassment and insecurity that get in the way when we are not sure how to pronounce something or what is a word for an object, for example
( by the way, a wine-bottle opener).Practice makes perfect - we can often hear that, but to make that practice really useful, we need guidance and some explanation of what is correct and what we shouldn't say.
Through 9 topics of the course, you, as learners will first familiarize with the English-speaking environment, will get the links to high-quality resources to listen to people speaking English, do different exercises and tasks to improve your fluency and accuracy, that is, to find right words easily and say them correctly.
During weeks 3 to 6 there will be live sessions when you, as course participants, will have the opportunity to talk to each other and use what you have learnt. No need to worry, there will be always a lot of support in the form of prompts and model sentences to help you speak.
