Syllabus

This course builds on the first module, Communicative English Language Skills I, which serves as the prerequisite of Communicative English Language Skills II. It is designed to help students become more confident users of English in both academic and everyday contexts. Organized around five engaging themes, life skills, science and the future, environmental protection, indigenous knowledge, and cultural heritage, it connects language learning to real-world issues. Through a balanced mix of reading, speaking, writing, and focused grammar practice, students expand their vocabulary and apply new structures in meaningful ways. Supplementary readings provide variety and foster critical thinking. By the end of the course, students will have strengthened their fluency and accuracy while gaining the confidence to express themselves clearly in academic work and social interactions.
