Learning outcomes

In the lessons dedicated to grammar we shall further broaden and systematize the knowledge of English grammar and exercise the knowledge in order to automatize the grammar rules. The grammatical phenomena shall be confronted with Czech language. The aim of the grammatical part of this course is to prepare the student for multifaceted work with English specialized texts (especially texts on economy) for further studies. In the conversational lessons we shall continue with text analysis and breading the vocabulary in selected topics. Special attention is paid to development of communicative competences in specific situations. We shall also deal with listening as a complimentary part of the course. The written text production is exercised by home assignments (essays on a given topic.)
