Summary
Upon their arrival at the School, engineering students take an online level test allowing them to be divided into groups of levels. Thereafter, English teaching offers face-to-face courses as well as independent access to digital platform offered by the company goFLUENT. This face-to-face / distance learning aims to allow them to become more comfortable in English communication at the level of the 5 skills highlighted by the Common European Framework of Reference: - Oral and written comprehension - Oral and written expression - Oral interaction (taking part in a conversation)
Educational goals
Pedagogical objectives Better assimilate a vocabulary that is both general and professional. Improve language skills by working independently on a digital platform At the end of the semester, students will be able to: - write a CV in paper and video format and update it as it evolves on a personal and professional scale - Make an oral presentation in pairs and lead a debate in around 30 minutes; - Solve a professional problem in a team as part of a "Case Study". Specific contribution of the course to a competency framework: at the end of the course, the students will have progressed in taking into account the international dimension through their ability to communicate in a foreign language (3.7), and in international management and responsible, by their ability to convince and account (4.3). They will also be confronted with innovation in a foreign language (1.1, 1.3).

Pedagogy
The educational material offered by goFLUENT is more oriented towards oral and written comprehension, as well as grammatical and lexical revision or improvement. In parallel, classroom-based courses encourages oral and written production above all, and focusses on notions not acquired in autonomous learning. The 2 approaches are thus complementary. A deepening of language skills and performance is often (but not always) acquired by "immersions" of varying lengths, in the context of the target language. "Cultural" widening to: - The business world and job / internship seeking - And more broadly cultural themes Pedagogy In class, in groups based on language levels; out-of-class work on the digital platform.
