Abstract

The most important grammar topics of this course are past tense forms, subordinate clauses, linking devices, reported speech, periphrastic verb constructions, and verbs that express change. The course also deals with topics that typically cause problems for higher level learners, including ser/estar, por/para, and indicative and subjunctive forms of verbs.

Objective

In this course, participants improve their comprehension of written and oral texts that deal with current issues, as well as of scientific texts from participants’ own fields of study. They are able to analyse various points of view and can create clear and detailed oral and written texts on scientific issues from their field of study, while taking a position and expressing definite views on these issues
