* The above schedule is tentative. Changes may be made depending on how quickly students progress through the material and what their interests are.

A number of different activities will be undertaken in this class. For listening practice, audio and video materials from the textbook will be used, and students will be expected to discuss the topics included in these materials in order to work on their speaking skills. Discussion activities will be mainly conducted in pairs or small groups, but whole-class discussion activities and presentations will also be done if time permits.

Students will be asked to prepare for class by completing exercises in the textbook or reading other material. Assignments such as summaries and presentation outlines will also be given (approx. 30 to 60 minutes per week in total).
