1 CES Polish language courses General description In CES we offer a homogeneous course at different levels for students in various programmes (MA, SA, IMESS, IMCREES) We offer students a September Survival course (20 contact hours) This course addresses absolute beginners and beginners plus. In October all students (including beginners) have to take a placement test. Students are divided into appropriate level groups from A1 to C2. Depending on the students' abilities, we match the levels of the group to the students' capabilities combining levels if necessary; e.g. A1/A2, A2/B1, B1/B2, B2/C1, C1/C2. Standards and resources. All syllabus, aims, objects and results are based on Common European Framework of References for Languages: Learning, Teaching, assessment Council of Europe, CUP (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2)

We offer 1- or 2-semester courses with four two-hour classes per week (our classroom hours are 45 min long). There are 100 contact hours per semester. Students will be expected to spend time outside the classroom on independent study, doing homework, and preparing presentations. Communicative, reading and vocabulary building skills will be extended through a range of exercises, work with authentic texts, and authentic radio and TV programmes. Assessment: We evaluate all of the students' coursework and attendance is also taken into account. 30% of the final grade is based on the midterm exam or regular quizzes. 20 % of the final grade is based on attendance and students' coursework (homework, presentations) 50 % of the final grade is based on the final exam (written and oral parts) Examination: We arrange examinations after each semester. It is a written test and an oral exam. Test consist of grammar exercises (30% for levels A1, A2, B1 and 25% for levels B2,C1) Vocabulary exercises (15% for levels A1, A2 10% for levels B1, B2 and 20% for C1, C2 levels) Reading (10% for A1, A2 levels, 15% for B1, B2 levels and 20% for C1, C2 levels)

Our course should help beginner students assimilate in our country and make them feel confident about speaking Polish with Poles. We encourage advanced students to improve their Polish by using various ways to communicate (colloquial language, idioms). We encourage proficiency level students to use Polish in their research and to seek future work in Polish companies.
