Course: Pilar Polo - As Pontes - IN-B2.2-SEMI - Blended Learning, Section: Module 0. Media library/14-19 September

Main course page

B2 Competence aims:
Understand standard spoken language, live or broadcast, on both familiar and unfamiliar topics normally encountered in personal, social, academic or vocational life as well as a broad active reading vocabulary, but may experience some difficulty with low-frequency idioms.

Produce and co-produce clear detailed texts on a wide range of general, academic, vocational or leisure topics, marking clearly the relationships between ideas and explaining advantages and disadvantages with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers possible without strain.

Mediate detailed information and arguments reliably, e.g. the significant point(s) contained in complex but well-structured, texts within their fields of professional, academic and personal interest.
