DESCRIPTION
This course is designed for students who wish to achieve a basic level of Czech. The primary aim of the course is to develop the four basic language skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking) through communicative, collaborative, and cultural activities.
The course combines several integrated approaches aimed at developing basic Czech language skills. Classroom time is devoted mainly to speaking and practicing Czech through a combination of group-based and individual activities, focusing on grammatical structures, language functions and vocabulary. Sessions also address a range of contemporary cultural themes and field studies will give students a unique chance to implement their linguistic development and newly acquired intercultural competence.
The course should help students master basic grammar and lexical structures in order to conduct a simple conversation and write short and basic texts with some degree of competency. Students will speak about themselves and their family, introduce people, interact with the host community, and follow short and simple conversations.
