This course will seek to maintain and develop the general linguistic ability of the students through intensive practice of
their reading, writing, listening and oral skills. A thematic approach to the course will be adopted and the topics
chosen as vehicles for practice it is hoped will be of contemporary relevance and interest. There will also be a
grammar component with the aim of covering the grammatical structures considered relevant for the students at this
stage of their learning process. Within the Common European Framework, the level to be achieved in this course will
be that of C1 [http://www.coe.int/t/dg4/Linguistic/Source/Framework] [http://cvc.cervantes.es/obref/marco]. Students
will be trained to understand a wide range of more demanding texts.. They will be able to express themselves
fluently and use language effectively for social, academic and professional purposes.

Assessment will be based on regular attendance, active participation, the course work and a final exam. Only
students who come to class regularly will be entitled to do oral presentations. Those who pass them satisfactorily
will not have to sit the final oral exam.
The mark obtained will be the 50% of the final grade of English Language IV. Both modules, theory and practice,
have to be passed independently. However, those students who pass the practical module, will have their mark
kept until December.
The “ficha” will have to be handed in during the first two weeks of the semester.
