MGRMN 4160 German Oral Communication

A guided oral skills development course designed to polish and enhance students' confidence, accuracy and ability to produce and interact using spoken German in a variety of contexts from informal to formal. In this course, through discrete listening and production practice activities, guided and free conversation, role-playing, debating, presenting and personal reflection, students will enhance their pronunciation, vocabulary production and comprehension and structural variety, thus preparing them to interact more spontaneously, appropriately and effectively in German. MGRMN 4160 meets with MGRMN 3160, with differentiated assignment lengths and expectations by level.
