Improve your conversational speaking skills in English!
Do you have trouble following conversations in English? Do you find there are many common idioms that you don't understand? Are you a little uncomfortable when you have to talk in English? Then Advanced Conversation may be the right course for you.

There are two sections of this course. Section A focuses on understanding of commonly used idioms and slang in American speech. Section B focues on conversation management skills.:

  • Section A meets Monday and Wednesday
  • Section B meets Tuesday and Thursday
Both Sections focus on improving your ability to communicate well in conversation.
So that you may take both courses, each section has a different textbook and a different emphasis.
