Students will not only learn a foreign language and technical terminology, but also demonstrate the ability of its use. The lessons will have a lecturing part (theory, new knowledge including practical examples) and a practical part (reading economical/business articles and their brief interpretation to ensure understanding the expert text, it’s interpretation and possibly to defend the standpoint).
