Course Description

The level III language course focuses on the continued development of communicative competence in the target language and understanding of the culture(s) of the people who speaks the language. It assumes that the students have completed a Level II course or are a Novice-Mid to Novice-High level of proficiency.

Students will use basic language structures with accuracy and recombine learned material to express their thoughts. They are exposed to more complex features of the language, moving from concrete to some abstract concepts.
