Developing Communication Skills for EFL Learners
(Developing Communication Skills for Learners of English as a Foreign Language)
This course was part of the effort to enhance the communicative competence of learners of English and equip them with the tools of effective linguistic interaction in academic and educational settings, as well as to develop skills in the functional use of the language according to the modern methods and strategies adopted in teaching English to non-native speakers, thereby contributing to raising the students' linguistic and cognitive performance and strengthening their ability to keep pace with contemporary academic standards.
The course also addressed a number of scientific themes related to developing the four language skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing, highlighting the role of linguistic communication in building the academic personality and developing learners' thinking skills and scientific interaction.
The course was delivered by a select group of the department's faculty members, namely:
