The minimum entry requirement for this course is the knowledge of B1 grammar and vocabulary according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.

Course-unit credit is awarded on condition of class participation and regular attendance, which is compulsory, with two absences permitted. In well-founded cases, extra absences can be made up for after consulting the situation with the teacher. Obtaining the course-unit credit is a necessary prerequisite for taking the final examination.

The final spoken exam assesses students' ability to express their opinions on a wide range of current social and personal topics, using language appropriate to the level required. The final evaluation reflects the ability to interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity. Grammatical and lexical accuracy must correspond to at least the B2 level. Students must achieve a minimum of 50% to pass the exam.

The aim of this course is to reinforce students' individual competencies in expressing themselves fluently and accurately in English in order to gain greater confidence when communicating in international and multicultural settings.

Previously acquired knowledge of grammar and vocabulary will be reviewed and systematically expanded through practical, real-life contexts. This will improve students' grammatical accuracy and range of vocabulary, as well as their ability to participate in discussions on a variety of general and social topics.

On successful completion of the course, students should be able to communicate in English independently at the B2 level.

The course can also be used as a preparation for international English language exams.
