The teacher will provide an English vocabulary for the book.

Teaching methods and instruction

In period 1, one contact and one online session per week in period 1.

Contact classes are important for practicing pronunciation and discussion: a lot of pair and groups exercises are done in class. For each class there will be homework, because learning the vocabulary and grammar require a lot of repetition.
