LANGUAGE SKILLS
The so-called Four Language Skills are a set of four competencies that allow an individual to comprehend and produce spoken language for proper and effective interpersonal communication. These skills are Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing.
From the Bilingualism department of the centre, we have carried out several courses focusing on this methodology where the four skills, that we consider the basis of a correct development of the English language, are recognizable in all the subjects of the bilingual itinerary through specific activities.
This idea is what we want to transfer to the resources we present to you on this site. Here we introduce you to each of the skills.
LISTENING

language.

It also allows you to demonstrate an emerging awareness of culturally implied
meanings beyond the surface meanings of the text.
