English for Administrative Staff Spring 2007

University of Tartu, Estonia

Group A

Group B

Course Description:
The purpose of this class is to provide opportunity for administrative staff members to practice professional English for both work-related and social purposes. Working with the course book Market Leader (Longman) we will develop an awareness of professional discourse and international student issues essential to build confidence in spoken and written English. Through interactive tasks, pair work, topic-specific readings, group discussions, and role playing, we will explore the appropriate use of English as it exists within professional contexts; class time will be spent examining authentic language samples, particularly as they apply to experiences with workplace English at the University of Tartu.
