Course Dynamics

This blended course for B1 has been designed to have a 6 hour work on-line and two sessions of two hours in face-to-face interaction. This course has 7 units; each unit consists of two lessons. You will need to build up a glossary of your own per unit, so keep this in mind while you read a text or listen to an audio. Do not forget to take notes always. You will have two weeks to complete every unit. It is highly recommended that you do all the activities on-line in advance in order to avoid falling behind schedule. Doing the activities on-line will help you practice what has already been taught in class.
