English for Advanced

Purpose

This training scheme is focused on learning advanced English in the components of listening, speaking, reading and writing. It is designed to be equivalent to the C1 level in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).

The English for Advanced training scheme introduces the target learners toa wide range of texts including print and multimodal texts. Learners will be able to understand a wide range of demanding, longer texts, and recognise implicit meaning. They will be able to express themselves fluently and spontaneously without much obvious searching for expressions. In addition, they will be able to use language flexibly and effectively for social, academic and professional purposes and produce clear, well-structured, detailed text on complex subjects, showing a controlled use of organisational patterns, connectors and cohesive devices.

This training scheme is oriented to learners who want to learn English as a second language from an advanced level. The training scheme targets migrants and students who have fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party.
