Every language is unique. Recently, technology has improved so that we can translate sentences instantly. However, we often lose the feeling of our messages when we do this. In this seminar, we will look at different ways of analyzing English to improve our communication skills and understand more about the culture of the English language.
This seminar is conducted entirely in English so that students will have many chances to practice the ideas that we will research and discuss.
