Course objectives

Course objectives: After completing the course successfully, students will reach the B2 level (SERR). The course focuses primarily on six selected fields of economics, companies, employment and unemployment, market, marketing, bank and money. In the seminars, students will improve the interpretation of the terms and grammar typical of professional language. Attention will also be paid to the professional vocabulary, definitions and phrases, including schematics, diagrams, and tables for an easy memorization of terms in a foreign language and at the same time for the structuring of knowledge of economic issues of any kind. Students will also work actively in seminars with professional texts including content, grammatical, lexical and translational fields. Emphasis will also be put on the language skills of reading, writing and speaking in the above economic issues.
