Englishes Mooc is developed for art students and other young makers who want to stop measuring their English along a ‘native’ standard in the international realm. The online course helps to develop practical skills towards this.
To take part, you need to sign up in advance for one of the six-week cycles. In the participant-only environment, you can access a new module every week, presented by a new person using a different kind of English. Each week is dedicated to a theme, such as phonetics, professional language and art jargon, intonation or language invention.
There are weekly assignments and live classrooms. Englishes Mooc takes about two hours a week to complete. It is open to everyone, regardless of English proficiency. It is free of charge.
It is now possible to sign up on the website www.englishes-mooc.org
First cycle: 22 October to 2 December 2019
Second cycle: 25 February to 6 April 2020
