Text writing for theologians/pastors B2/C1 – REGISTRATION |
Drafting and writing useful texts for pastors in their working environment: preparing speeches, writing letters, expressing ideas (e.g. for the parish council, letters of condolence, short texts). We experiment with the language, express ourselves and learn from each other using texts from everyday professional life. We talk about linguistic subtleties and the effect of expressions in different contexts. We develop a feeling for the language, expand vocabulary and perfect the language used in the work environment. |
