English Practicum
This course focuses on the practical application of English language skills through hands-on practice. It goes beyond theory by emphasizing the real use of the language in various contexts. The practicum is integrated with courses in the four core areas of English Language Education: Language Skills, Linguistics, Literature, and TEFL and Micro Teaching. It demonstrates how language is used to strengthen students’ theoretical understanding through practice-based and technology-assisted activities.
