AIMS AND CONTENT

TEACHING METHODS

The course aims to trigger procedurality in the way students react to the input in Russian. All teachers speak Russian, but using short functional translation to make students confident with the corrispondence of each L2 context related unit with the well known correspondent L1 unit. The main effort of the team is to provide students with an effective instruction about the time, contents and methodology of self-training, which is a fundamental part of the course. Particularly, syntax will be shown as the main instrument in achieving procedurality and fluency in verbal communication
