The students will be able to understand texts that contain vocabulary frequently used on daily basis or that relate to their work, and also the descriptions of events, feelings and wishes in a personal letter. The students can deal with most situations likely to arise when they travel in an area where the language is spoken. They can engage in spontaneous conversation on topics which are familiar to them, they are interested in or which relate to everyday life (e.g. family, hobbies, work, travel and current events). The students can combine phrases in a simple way to describe their experiences and events, dreams, hopes and goals or briefly justify and explain their views and plans. The students can tell a story or describe the content of a book or film and express their opinion on them. They can write a simple concise text on familiar topics or personal interest and write personal letters describing experiences and impressions.
