To be an ideal field to cultivate the skills and processes of teaching and learning English as a second language. For this, we are permanently designing teaching strategies and practical courses that can lead our students to successfully develop both in the academic and professional fields.
This course is born from the need of our students who want to apply for an exchange abroad. Most of our universities in agreement require a B2 or higher level of English as a requirement, and this must be accredited by an internationally recognized English test such as the TOEFL. Hence, every semester we offer group classes to prepare for the exam from March to December.
