Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to communicate orally and in written form on various matters connected to familiar themes. They will also be able to give quite detailed accounts of different situations and events, and understand such accounts. With the help of a dictionary, students will be able to read texts whose structural requirements are slightly below standard newspaper language.

In cases where more students register for a course than space allows, priority is assigned as follows:

1. First priority is given to the degree students of the University of Tampere.
2. Second priority is given to the exchange students of the University of Tampere.
3. Third priority is given to the Tampere3 students and to the high school students of the UTA Teacher Training School.

In addition, there is a quota of 5 for the Open University students in every group.
