The course aims at helping students improve the skill of effective, accurate and fluent communication in the English language in various fields (subjects) taught in elementary schools and prepare future teachers to be able to teach these subjects through English and to implement CLIL (content and language integrated learning) in their teaching. The course focuses primarily on systematically building up the students' vocabulary and relevant grammar structures closely connected to these fields. The student develops their language and communicative competences.
