Description <p dir="ltr">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. In preparation of the Oral Skills exam, students will also get the chance to update their presentation skills and apply them in short individual contributions. </p><p dir="ltr"><strong><em>Requirement: </em></strong>Students who enroll in this course ought to be willing to speak in small and larger groups and share their opinions freely and respectfully.</p>
Literature

Short, weekly reading assignments will be provided as a basis for our in-class discussions on moodle.
Remarks

Please attend all sessions regularly and actively. See this course as a chance to catch up with what you may have lost in terms of confidence, fluidity, and complexity of speaking due to the previous, pandemic-induced limitations or mostly passive consumption of English language texts and materials.

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.
