授業の概要 This course will provide students with a lot of opportunities to learn practical conversational English skills through a wide range of task activities : pair work, dialogue practice, group discussions and games. The main focus will be on speaking, but we will also integrate a variety of grammar, pronunciation/listening as well as reading activities in our conversational practice. 
授業の到達目標 The aim is to develop students' communicative skills in various authentic situations. Lesson contents will focus on more challenging topics and thought-provoking discussions, using new and more sophisticated grammar and vocabulary.

自学自習についての情報 Students are strongly advise to review and practice each of the key language points after the class. Be goal-oriented : improve on English communicative skills, fluency and originality. Also since this is NOT a GRAMMAR class, students should understand the importance of practicing speaking ALOUD and REPETITIVELY, so they could INTERNALIZE the necessary OUTput skills in order to function well in a foreign language environment. 
授業の形式 Pair work, role play, group discussions, etc.
