  • Being able to discuss the pros and cons of your chosen or preferred study fields, or why certain fields do not interest you.
  • Terms and expressions related to academic achievements and qualifications—like diplomas, degrees, or certificates—are necessary.

Work and Employment

  • Familiarity with language related to job applications, such as CVs, interviews and cover letters is beneficial.
