3) translation: the third part will focus on further development of translation competence, through a workshop activity of analysis and translation of texts (including audiovisual ones).
Language Exercises (Language Experts): activities aimed at developing productive and receptive skills to reach C1 level (for Spanish First language) and B2/C1 level (for Spanish Second language)
