This course aims to help students to develop the basic English reading and writing skills needed for success in academic contexts. There are two parallel tracks: one focused on basic reading skills through graded readers, which the students must summarize after reading; and one focused on reading and summarizing scientific journal articles. The final project requires students to demonstrate their ability by writing an original literature review in APA format on a topic of their choice.

This course aims to develop in students the knowledge and English language skills required for success in business where English is the lingua franca.

English for Creative Writing is a basic English course teaching elementary reading and writing skills. The focus is on communicating stories effectively, especially emotional and commercial content. A key practice is reading a book every week, and writing a summary of that book in one sentence, two sentences, and a paragraph. Following on from the foundation laid by the reading practice, there are writing assignments in which students must demonstrate their ability to write within specific constraints.

Students will gain improved fluency in speaking and listening in English.

Activities will be based mostly around the QSkills for Success book 2A Listening and Speaking.

Students should study each unit of this book, completing all exercises for homework.

Additionally, in-class activities will focus on active learning, with a focus on vocabulary acquisition and practical language skills.

Q-Skills R&W level 2A

English for International Program concentrates on the student's ability to use English at an upper-intermediate level after the course. They should be able to communicate using English either as a first, second, or even third language. The level of understanding should help them to use the language at work, travel, and socializing, and also to create critical thinking skills, that will help them to work with others, at all levels in society.

The course has been re-designed to accommodate more non-natives of English to be seen using the language via videos, with worksheets, also audios to enhance listening skills, reading aloud assignments to help the students with their delivery of the speech, and some paragraph analysis to understand the text. All in all, the course should promote a more active-learning environment, by means of presentations, where the students will get the chance to use critical thinking skills to put together a presentation showing differences in cultures, and how we differ from each other. This is to promote cultural awareness and to help them have a greater understanding of different people from around the world, and to build a sense of intercultural communication competence, (ICC).
