/Themes and goals(up to 2,000 letters)
The main goal of this class is for students to develop their abilities to use English in real-life communication. Note that the word “communication” does not only mean “conversation.” Students therefore will engage in writing activities as well as discussions, oral presentations, and other speaking tasks. It is not important that the students already have good English skills, but they must be willing to use the language at all times.
