COURSE DESCRIPTION

This course is aimed at having students of English I develop their communicative abilities as they are

introduced to the basic elements of the language such as grammatical structures, listening, writing, reading

and speaking, through a motivating context which includes the use of stimulating topics and subtopics that

drive them to scaffold in the use of the target language. This course drives the students to recycle and acquire

new vocabulary challenging them to develop their critical thinking skills fostering the increase of knowledge

in other fields of study besides English. Graduates will be able to transmit knowledge in context since they are

not only trained to use the language appropriately, but also to teach it according to the latest methods and

strategies, which they learn impliedly as the course goes on.
