OVERVIEW

The course is taught on an annual basis and is supported by "lettorato" to help students revise grammar and the basic structures of the English language

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The aim of the module is to introduce students to the study of the English

language (phonology, morphology, syntax, vocabulary, semantics) as the

expression of both a homogeneous culture and a lingua franca of international

communication. At the end of the course students will be able to critically

read and analyze texts, especially in the sphere of current affairs in order to

discuss them with their peers.

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

At the end of the course students are expected to have a B1 level in English
