Who teaches foreign languages at KU?
Kozminski Language Centre is a team of top-class teachers and lecturers. They are the authors of general and specialised language textbooks, e-learning courses for Business English, language learning and testing applications, articles, reviews and other publications.
Our teachers are practitioners – they apply effective teaching methods and use a variety of teaching materials, such as latest language textbooks, their own multimedia materials, and specialist authentic texts such as contracts, commercial and legal documents, case studies and articles. They use new technologies to teach and test foreign language skills.
All of our teachers improve their methodological skills by participating as presenters at conferences, training sessions and seminars, and by collaborating with international associations and organisations of English language teachers, e.g., IATEFL, EULETA, the British Council, Cambridge English Assessment and the Austrian Institute.
At KU, we run licensed language certification centres (TOLES, Linguaskill, Goethe-Test Pro and ÖSD) where our students can obtain international certification of their language qualifications. KU Language Centre carries out research and pilot tests for certificate examinations, among others for the British Council and Pearson.
