This course is designed for EFL students who need English for both their academic and professional career. This course is important in the sense that it makes the students aware of the fact that studying is not mainly a body of knowledge but rather a skill. As such, students will be encouraged to develop new learning techniques, practise them and choose what suits them best. It aims at raising their awareness of the personal skills they have already and those they need to develop, mastering new strategies that will facilitate the learning process and inducing them to turn these personal skills into academic ones at a first stage, and be able to transfer them into their working life at a later stage.
