Word of advice to next year students

The most important fact that a new student has to take in account is that this course is about academic English, using the business world as subject of interest. So the English learned during your secondary school forms the basic knowledge that you need to have to successfully pass the course. So my advice would be: don't think this course is unnecessary just because you can find your way in English abroad or being able to watch movies without subtitles. This is not enough. This course will take steps towards academic English, which is a whole new level. So again, my advice would be to take the course seriously and don't be a slacker, because this course can really help you with other courses and the level of conversation.
