Course Description (English Version)
The objective of this course is to enhance students’ English listening and speaking abilities. By way of presentations, group discussions, impromptu reports and oral exams, the students’ English communicative and expressive abilities are expected to be greatly improved. In this class, students will learn to listen patiently and express courageously. They will also develop confidence as well as independent and critical thinking. In addition, as students need to read plenty of materials for the preparing of the speeches, and are required to write down their speeches as well as make up handouts relevant to their speech contents (by itemizing the points of the speeches and listing a number of key words), they will also improve their English reading and writing abilities.

Intermediate Conversation (I) focuses on "introductions" and "issues", i.e., the students will introduce a variety of things and discuss diverse controversial topics. The topics will be voted by the students themselves from a list of topics provided by the instructor; students can add new ones if they like, thus the topics may vary year from year.
