It is tailor made especially for non-English majors at an intermediate level (with a minimum vocabulary body of 7,000 words) who wish to develop conversational as well as intellectual listening and speaking ability. This course will focus on journalistic English (BBC, CNN news, New York Times) and occasionally dabble in business English, literature, and drama. The class will be organized around discussions, presentations, light-hearted impromptu speeches, and performances, all of which are designed to be collaborative throughout.
