C1A - Lessons to date

It’s been good meeting you over the last few weeks!


The timetable has now been modified so please check carefully where/when we have lessons.

Every week or two I’ll be posting a brief overview of some of the main points we’ve covered in class and homework given.


So far we’ve been looking at the language of newspaper headlines, newspaper terminology and various types of UK newspapers (tabloids, broadsheets etc.). If you need a copy of the handouts, please let me know.


At home you should find a newspaper article in English that you find interesting (see the links on the right for help) and write a summary about it – 150 – 200 words. Please bring it to class next week as we’ll be speaking about the articles in one of the lessons.


First year students – we also looked at the past exam paper (grammar paper) from May 2010. Past writing exams can be found in the Language Faculty. Past listening papers can be found at CLA …all very useful practice!


We'll be looking at some grammar points from next week, so if you don't have your grammar book yet, please try to get it as soon as possible.


See you next week!
