strengthen your use of vocabulary, both at work and in social situations.
help you to distinguish between formal and informal language.
improve your knowledge of idioms, slang and colloquial expressions.
develop your ability to use the right word at the right time.
To benefit from the course, you must be prepared to speak in front of others and take an active role in the activities and exercises that the teacher gives you.
