      Methods of teaching Teaching is interactive and delivered in a hybrid format. In-person classes are based on work with authentic professional texts in Spanish, on the analysis of terminology and genre features of texts from selected professional fields, and on oral and written tasks that simulate professional communication. The Moodle platform supports the course: it hosts materials, independent-study assignments and announcements, and students use it to submit their work and receive feedback.
