The basic English that you need to master in order to sit the Bachelor's State Final Exam is VB001 Specialist English. The course is only a form of exam at the end of the semester. The exam tests whether your knowledge is really equivalent to B2 level according to the Common European Framework of Reference.
-
Courses VB035 and VB036 are compulsory and prepare you for those parts of the VB001 exam that students usually find difficult - formal use of language in written and spoken speech, presentations, giving feedback, creating handouts, etc. Seminars are held once every 14 days and each student keeps his/her own record of study, which is adapted to his/her individual abilities, so the emphasis is on students' independence in language study.
-
These courses practice presentation skills from all possible angles. Groups are small and also serve to gain confidence and self-assurance in the use of spoken language. The exact content of the course varies according to the needs of the students and results in a final presentation, usually IBM-rated by their experts.
