Introduzioneall'insegnamentodi:
Inglese II - Business Communication

Benvenuto al corso di “Inglese II”!
Mi chiamo Anthony Stephen Plourd e vi seguirò durante tutto il percorso di
studio e a fine corso sosterrete la prova d’esame con me.

Ciascuna lezione sarà organizzata in 3 parti:

 •    Listening and Grammar

 •    Business Communication and Vocabulary

 •    Group Laboratory and Individual Laboratory

 •    L’esame si articolerà in due fasi: una parte scritta e una parte orale.
      Lo scritto consisterà in: a) esercizi sulle strutture grammaticali di livello
      pre- intermedio e intermedio e sul vocabolario presentati nel corso; b)
      un’analisi di un breve testo con domande a risposta multipla e riassunto/
      commento. La parte scritta vi darà quindi la possibilità di essere valutati
      sulle vostre competenze di “Reading comprehension” e di “Writing”.
      Il colloquio che sosterrete in seguito al test scritto comproverà le vostre
      competenze di “Listening” e “Speaking”.
      Vi suggerisco di studiare con attenzione i materiali didattici che metterò a
      disposizione e di frequentare il corso. Buono studio!”
