A step forward. Tips for everyday communication is an online course in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish to learn and to practise communicative expressions and sociocultural information which will be useful for everyday interactions in those languages. Each language has four video units with the same structure: a short video illustrating daily communicative situations, an explanation of the sociocultural and pragmatic content, and a set of online activities to take the content further in the learner’s own time. This online course will be helpful for migrants, refugees, and any second/foreign language learner at an intermediate proficiency level who seeks to learn more about appropriate ways to communicate and interact in the target language and culture.
