Seminar: Speaking (Dr Brauer)

Life as we experience it on a daily basis, be it in person or covered by the media, offers a plethora of fascinating topics that require and/or provide us with an opportunity for critical thinking and forming more complex opinions than yes or no. This course hopes to expand students' vocabulary by diving into a variety of contemporary (cultural) issues and thus improve their ability to critically examine and discuss issues from around the world in more advanced English.

Requirement: Students who enroll in this course ought to be willing to speak in small and larger groups and share their opinions freely and respectfully.

Short, weekly reading assignments will be the basis for our in-class discussions and the texts and/or links will be provided on moodle.

Please attend all sessions regularly and actively to maximize the effect of communicating intensively in English once a week.

Please make sure to take this Speaking course in combination with a Presentations course, preferably in the same semester, to properly prepare for the "Oral Skills" module exam.
