- Synopsis:
-
This course accents the communicative approach to language teaching. Therefore, individual lessons are primarily centred around an underlying topic that is complemented by the communicative language function. Further appropriate language aspects (i.e. grammar, lexis, pronunciation, skills) arise from the given communicative need.
Basic communication in common situations is further enriched by communicative skills in a more specific university environment.
The Czech course is intended for students in the English Programme,
who have already gained some basic knowledge in the Czech language, i.e. they are at A1/A2 level.
The course is aimed to provide training in language means necessary for communication in everyday situations and at university.
