Закінчилися 2 курси у межах співпраці НУ «Запорізька політехніка» із Кардіффським університетом
Це партнерство виникло завдяки ініціативі UK-UA Twinning, і з 2023 року науково-педагогічні працівники та здобувачі вищої освіти всіх рівнів мають можливість вдосконалювати навички спілкуватись і мислити критично, створювати тексти академічного спрямування та викладати освітні компоненти англійською мовою.
Цього семестру пройшов курс «English for Academic Purposes» та відбулися заняття в Розмовному клубі під керівництвом Келлі Ріглі, викладача Кардіффського університету.
Ми щиро вдячні Келлі за цікаві, корисні, насичені заняття, за дружню атмосферу для навчання та турботу про учасників!
Особлива подяка координатору співпраці з боку Кардіффського університету, Деніелу Корнеліусу, менеджеру програм з вивчення англійської мови, за організацію роботи курсів уже впродовж трьох років, індивідуальний підхід до академічних потреб нашої спільноти та всебічну підтримку!

What did you like about the course?
I liked the ability to practice speaking English in lessons. I was also interested in most of the topics; the exercises were very instructive and fun, and the discussions were quite interesting. I really liked the positive, supportive atmosphere in the lessons as well. I liked a friendly environment, very interesting tasks and lessons overall, also I liked the quiz on the last lesson, it was really enjoyable and instructive!) Besides, all lessons were unique with specific, non-repetitive themes, which I also like a lot».

Sergii Guliaiev, PhD student
A friendly environment, a variety of interesting topics for discussion, and non-stressful, non-boring assignment formats. The teacher created a very pleasant and friendly environment, so studying was enjoyable and stress-free. The teacher also provided engaging discussion topics and questions related to the main lesson, which increased student interest and active communication. There was no mandatory homework, but there were optional assignments. This is the best approach because it’s flexible and allows for comfortable learning, whether you have no time for homework or are willing to put in extra effort
