LEARNING OUTCOMES
The learning objectives of the graduate programme in Philology, Linguistic, and Literary Traditions include independent language skills in a language spoken in the EU. Classes aim to help students acquire CEFR B2 competences in English. At the end of the course, students will be expected to understand the main concepts of a discourse of a certain length and follow quite complex arguments; to understand narrative texts; to communicate in a sufficiently spontaneous and natural way so as to interact with native speakers; to express their opinions; to write clearly and articulately on a wide range of topics. The MA English Language Workshop will also prepare students for the Cambridge First (B2) exam tasks.
