Aims and objectives

Modern foreign language SSCs

The aim of all our language courses is to enable you to improve both your ability to communicate and your linguistic competence in the chosen language. A balance of receptive (reading, listening) and productive (speaking, writing) skills are developed through communicative classes and self‐study. All courses will give an insight into the country’s culture and society in a European/global context. How to study a language and various transferable skills are also part of the course.
