Greek II.1

Core course

Greek II.1 is a continuation of Greek I.1 and Greek I.2. The intention is to build further on the junior level work and widen the scope of exposure to more complex aspects of the Greek language. The course offers a balanced range of the various language skills through further syntax acquisition: reading and text analysis, listening comprehension, composition, translation, oral expression, and communicative skill. The teaching will diversify through the use of more elaborate material and a variety of teaching techniques including work with video and Internet. Participants are expected to consolidate their understanding of the Greek language and to further develop their production and reception skills. Small tutorial groups will be arranged throughout the semester to ensure maximum opportunities for interactive practice. Through continuing to study this language, students will gain further insight into aspects of Greek and Cypriot culture.
