About the program

In this context, the English language is considered the lingua franca that enables such interaction, so its mastery has a positive impact on people's academic, professional and social life.

This program seeks to strengthen the participants’ competences to design and implement learning experiences that stimulate the development of communicative competence in English as a foreign language. For this, the course offers deep understanding of the communicative approach and its implications in the teaching of languages, the implementation of innovative, integrating and effective didactic strategies; and reflection on the participants' own pedagogical practices and conceptions.
