1. Course Description
There is more and more globalization going on, for better or worse, which is shown by the long sluggish economy worldwide derived from a financial crisis in the U.S., for instance. This course aims to help the students improve their communication skills in English as a global language. It is also designed to help them get a STEP (=Society for Testing English Proficiency) 2nd Grade certificate, which is often required for a teaching position in English at a (junior) high school in Japan.
