OUR BLA BLA BLA

Course aims:
Main aim: to enable learners to develop their communicative skills at a basic level.
Secondary aims:
1. enable learners to interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular
interaction in real life situations quite possible without strain.
2. enable learners to produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects and explain a
viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options.
3. enable learners to understand the main ideas of everyday texts on both concrete and
abstract topics.
II. Curriculum Basic Level
At this level students might not recognize the letters and there’s a possibility they aren’t
able to read, however the method we are suggesting is based on the people’s ability to
imitate the sound without knowing the word itself. It is similar to how infants copy their
parents’ words and start talking. It doesn’t mean we won’t be covering reading or writing,
but those skills just would be added later into the process of learning, as firstly students
need to learn to speak.
