Cíle předmětu
The aim of the course is to strengthen and deepen the achieved English language knowledge and skills and to extend the lexical system of English in the field of cultural and natural heritage tourism, and to provide a basic overview in the area of cultural background studies and main tourist destinations of selected European countries in English. The individual lectures will introduce main tourist attractions and UNESCO sites of particular countries, i.e. geography and natural beauties, history, architectural heritage, and important personalities. The main aim is to inform students of cultural studies characterising given countries, of the most visited natural, cultural and social attractions as well as to widen and deepen their language skills especially in the area of understanding spoken and written English texts. At the same time, the course aims at strengthening the competences of students and their use of language in communication in a conscious and confident way, both in terms of fluency and accuracy. All the mentioned topics will be extensively discussed and individual presentations will be devoted to particular issues.
