SGH Warsaw School of Economics offers the highest standards in foreign language teaching, which has always been our university’s recognisible trademark. Seeking top quality in academic language teaching derives from our belief that it is of utmost significance for graduates of the best economic university to communicate fluently and effectively in foreign languages. High language competence allows not only to meet future employers’ expectations, but can offer a powerful edge over other competing candidates.

We offer a large number of hours and a high level of teaching English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Polish, foreign language classes in the field of economics, taking into account current issues related to social, political and economic life.

In a selective manner we would like to present the outline of language courses, offered by the Centre of Foreign Languages.

Offer in English

General Proficient English ECTS 4.5

Author and lecturer: Bartosz Kraszewski

The aim of the course is to familiarize students with advanced English vocabulary, expressions, collocations and phrases. During the course, the student will become acquainted with highly conversational / communicative grammar, which at its high level does not include typical grammar definitions and exercises. In addition to phrases and vocabulary, some elements of slang and colloquial or conversational language will be introduced. All concepts will be presented in strictly contextual terms to facilitate their acquisition and long-term retention.
The aim of the course is also to broaden the active vocabulary of students and thus to enrich their language skills in general. After mastering a significant number of words from different registers (formal, semi-formal, informal, business and semi-slang or slang), students will not only be able to understand and create formal texts, but also master the highly idiomatic English used by native speakers of English-speaking countries on a daily basis. The classes will consist in practicing speaking skills in controlled conditions, coming down to expressing precise thought and practicing listening skills in order to show participants the practical dimension of work performed in class and at home. The course includes advanced listening exercises at the C1 + / C2 level that cover a wide range of everyday and business situations. Moreover, some parts of the language taken from books and other literary texts will be analyzed by students in terms of the meaning of the context-based vocabulary to develop this skill as well.

American English Pronunciation Workshops ECTS 3.0

Author and lecturer: Bartosz Kraszewski

Acquiring natural pronunciation is the most difficult skill in mastering a new language. This requires re-learning to listen and imitate and a different way of using the voice (movements of the tongue, jaw, lips and other organs of articulation). This should be seen as a new skill to develop - a new challenge. Pronunciation and articulation significantly affect the perception and overall assessment of a person. Bad pronunciation has negative consequences and psychological research leaves no doubt in this regard. The consequences are: audience confusion, the impression of lack of education, and the inability to become a good speaker, despite general linguistic competence. On the other hand, good pronunciation makes a person a pleasant communicator, lays the foundations for public speaking, and provides self-confidence, which in turn opens up many possibilities. It helps us create our own image in professional contacts, which is particularly essential in the business environment. Good, native-like pronunciation is an important element in the assessment of competence, professionalism and intelligence. Moreover, the manner of speaking also influences the assessment of physical attractiveness. It is also worth mentioning that in English the sensitivity to pronunciation is much greater than in Polish as the accent in this language has always been a determinant of education or social class. Therefore, I believe it is imperative to acquire this skill.
The main aim of this course-workshop is to raise students’ awareness of this concept and implement it successfully. The course focuses on American English (known as General American). During the course, students will learn the most important features of the standard American accent. Both the most important differences and similarities between Polish and English will be shown. The tutor will conduct presentations on a given aspect, followed by a wide range of practical exercises with theory kept to a minimum. Students will receive feedback on the mistakes they have made, along with suggestions on how to avoid them.
The lecturer will pay special attention to the negative interference of the mother tongue of the participants (mainly Polish) with English (phonetic interference). The main differences between Received Pronunciation and General American will also be discussed to ensure participants are consistent in their chosen variety. Fans of both varieties of the English language will benefit from the course.
