This "Special Topics" class is for students who are at Upper Intermediate Level (B2) or above. Students will deepen their knowledge of a few contemporary authors and their literary works of the 20th century while practicing reading and conversational skills at the B2 proficiency level. This is a very structured class which provides opportunity to practice specific grammatical structures and vocabulary in a personally meaningful and authentic context.
NOTE: This course is for anybody who has not completed (including not ever started) this book. This includes those who have taken it in the past but did not finished the readings. Since all authors are from the same period, the order in which we cover them does not matter. THIS TERM, we will cover the authors towards the end of the book, and future courses will cover those at the beginning and then the middle.
If you have not taken any other classes at ICC before, PLEASE SIGN UP TO TAKE OUR PLACEMENT TEST HERE. An instructor will assess your level.
