COURSE DESCRIPTION

English-I (English Language Proficiency, HU-105) aims at enabling the first semester students to exchange ideas effectively in English. It empowers them to express themselves in familiar contexts, and to deal in a general way with non- routine information. This course covers language required for simple but effective communication socially and professionally by using grammatical structures in context and employing relevant vocabulary. It works on the four main skills (reading, writing, speaking and listening) through interaction with students and the teacher in individual, pair and group work. Emphasis is laid on public speaking and presentation skills. They are given opportunities to research and present on various topics.
