Course contents:

Depending on the level, students can intensify their knowledge in grammar and vocabulary. The first two levels (English for Advanced 1 and 2) deal with the repetition of the grammar. The examples reflect typical situations in which both technical and general language are used; other examples are e.g. application letters, the description of products and services, business phone calls, communication processes in formal and informal meetings, presentations, etc. In Business English, the main focus is on spoken language and work in small groups. At the beginning of the semester, each group founds its own company, which is dynamically developed during the course of the semester. In Technical English, the main focus is on acquiring and using a basic technical vocabulary and typical expressions of technical communication.
