We warmly invite all the students of junior high schools and high schools, all college students as well as any other people who might be interested to take part in the course of meetings that will be organised from March to May 2015 by the Department of English. Each of the one-hour meetings will be carried out in English by the teachers of the departments of English and Translation. During each of the meetings there will be a short lecture followed by a discussion.
If you want to spend an afternoon in a nice way, polish your English, talk about interesting subjects with foreign students of Krosno State College; if you want to learn something about the British humour and sitcoms, about Australian animals, British and American food or about the communication and the language itself, we are inviting you on Mondays at 4 pm to room 202 in the College Library Building at Rynek 1 (way through the main office of PWSZ).
Please find below the schedule of the March and April meetings. The topics of May meetings will be announced in due course.
