Coursebook

This course employs the principles of blended learning, i.e. online teaching and classroom teaching are combined. 
The students prepare oral and written activities, so that the limited number of contact hours can be spend with communicative activities.
The interactive and participative method requires active participation, both in oral activities (presentation, meetings, discussions, sales conversation, reclamation conversation, job interview) and written activities (writing exercises for common letter types).
For this activities, the students work alone (presentation), with a fellow student (sales conversation, reclamation conversation, writing exercises), with the lecturer (job interview) or in group (meetings, discussions).
