Course Objectives

Path 1 
The first year of the course aims to provide the student with the necessary tools and skills to:

  • Understand the main points in current affairs or personal interest topics and express them clearly;
  • Express himself confidently in dealing with routine problems in daily life;
  • Understand texts written in everyday language;
  • Produce a simple text about familiar subjects;
  • Convey information, describe experiences and events and briefly explain the reasons for personal opinions.

Course Content Summary

The course is based on looking at realistic situations in everyday life and using written and spoken texts which reflect these. Aspects of language and functions linked to these situations, as well as the description of syntax and sentence structures and their usage, are all part of the course. This involves the study of both communicative and pragmatic aspects of the language and the use of more complex morphosyntactic structures. Space is also dedicated to an analysis of intercultural communication. The emphasis placed on oral interaction and project work is aimed at developing language skills, favouring the acquisition of lexical competence and awareness of the communicative and interactional aspects.
Adequate attention is reserved for specialized terminology and grammatical forms. The phonetic and morphological aspects are highlighted in order to improve pronunciation.
The listening comprehension activities are designed to develop the ability to follow and understand and listen to simple texts.
Reading activities are mainly concerned with developing interactive (discussions, role plays) and reporting skills.
Attendance in class together with appropriate individual study is necessary in order to consolidate knowledge of the language.
At the end of the first year course there is the exam for "English 1".
