Extent and forms are specified by guarantor’s regulation updated for every academic year.

The aim of this course is to help students prepare for the BY51 English exam which is an exam to assess if M.A. students have reached the B1 level of the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) established by the Council of Europe. For a brief summary of what is required for the B1 level of English see the annotation below. The BYA6 course focuses on practising the reading, listening, speaking and writing skills. It also covers some more advanced grammar to help students progress beyond what they have studied in the BYA5 course, improve their communicative abilities, and extend their vocabulary.
The lessons in the first part of the semester will be similar in form to those for courses BYA1 – BYA5. The second part of the semester is devoted to exam preparation. The target level according to the CEFR is B1.
Students will improve their knowledge of grammar and vocabulary at intermediate level and acquire reading, writing, listening and speaking skills required for the BY51 English exam, which is an exam to assess the B1 level of the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference) established by the Council of Europe.
