COURSE TITLE: A2.2 – ELEMENTARY

DURATION: 5 WEEKS

COURSE DESCRIPTION

A2.2 builds on the A2.1 foundation and helps learners communicate with more flexibility across personal, social, and workplace situations. In this course, students talk about past problems and solutions, health, travel, responsibilities, future plans, goals, possibilities, life experiences, recent activities, and real-life communication tasks. They also begin using more advanced A2 structures such as the present perfect, future intention language, and functional expressions for help, advice, preferences, and discussion.
