Assigned Department Objectives
Teaching Method
Outline:
The students will be learning common conversation phrases with basic grammar, and appropriate vocabulary from the textbook. The focus of the class will be improving confidence in speaking. To do this, students will participate in three types of presentations—individual, with pairs and in groups. Last, they will improve their vocabulary through creative writing exercises.
Style:
Most classes will have textbook work with phrases and vocabulary that will involve individual work, pair work and group work. There will be supplementary activities to help students become familiar with textbook vocabulary and phrases and listening activities to enhance understanding of foreign cultures. Some classes will include writing activities where students express themselves freely. Exams given will cover the textbook and all materials, including presentations, done in the class.
