The learning objectives are achieved in a step-by-step process through an inductive and communicative teaching approach that addresses the complete spectrum of language abilities. Exercises become progressively more complex and generally train specific abilities like listening comprehension, speaking, reading comprehension, or writing. Classroom activities include individual and group work and are complemented by compulsory homework exercises.

By the end of the course, students will

• understand everyday speech
• communicate in simple and routine situations by email and phone
• write and answer simple messages
• describe and provide explanations for their personal plans, hopes and aims
• expressing preferences and wishes, writing postcards
• making comparisons
