COURSE TYPE

The AGLL course will take place exclusively online (in Moodle), with the exception of the final exam, which will be held face-to-face at INLL. We strongly recommend that you use Google Chrome as your browser.

-          There will be only 5 compulsory courses, which will take place on predefined dates. The first will be the KICK-OFF (information session on the course). For the other classes, each participant will choose a half-hour slot in an evening time slot. A form will be available on Moodle. The last will be the test.

-          Participants work independently with the book and grammar (PDFs and videos provided) as well as the exercises in the virtual classroom. So everyone can study whenever and wherever they want.

-          Participants complete exercises in writing, reading, listening and speaking. These are recorded in the virtual classroom.

-          Each learner receives individual corrections.

-          Once a week, the teacher will be available to answer learners' questions or simply to practise speaking.

The course :

-          offers fully distance learning courses.  A link will be available on a no-registration platform in Moodle.

-          is based on the work schemes drawn up on the basis of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).

All learners are assessed and will be issued a certificate outlining their skills level.
