simple texts.
The class consists of two one and a half hour
sessions per week of grammar, listening and
reading comprehension and conversation. The
total number of contact hours is sixty-three
(
twenty-one weeks). At the end of the course
students have an option of final written and oral
assessment, which may be one of the entrance
requirements in order to proceed to the next level.
