The course covers lessons 24-26 of the textbook French for Beginners, lecture notes French for engineering students of FJFI and is complemented with some topics from Espace 2.
- Syllabus of tutorials:
-
The course is run as a series of seminars following the topics and scope of the syllabus mentioned above.
- Study Objective:
-
Knowledge:
Knowledge of grammar is expanded and systemized, stress is put on structures typical of specialized, technical and science texts. Vocabulary is expanded mainly by specific expressions of mathematics, physics (chemistry). Pronunciation and orthography are developed together with new grammar and vocab.
Skills:
Application of acquired knowledge in everyday communication and in more professional context, both in speaking and writing. Oral communication in everyday situations and on general topics, oral presentation on technical, popular science or students´ specialization topics. Reading for information, summary, discussion. Writing an application, CV.
Meeting the requirements for taking examination.
