3. We finish here our taster. It was great to have you with us! Weeks 3 to 10 are part of the microcredential course. If you decide to join us, some of the topics you can expect are: saying one’s age, saying the time, inviting/requesting, food, travelling, past experiences etc. The class group will have 1-hour weekly online seminars with their teacher. These seminars will focus on speaking. At the end, there will be an exam that enables learners to be awarded 15 credits. The 10-week course is set to start in October 2021 or January 2022, here on FutureLearn.
