Centrale nel linguaggio è l’accuratezza, data dalla scelta di parole appropriate
da utilizzare nella frase. Gli studenti hanno la possibilità di acquisire tale
accuratezza formale grazie a questo focus, che fornisce spunti per ripassare e
consolidare tutte le strutture già apprese e per affinare precisione e correttezza
- un must per la preparazione agli esami, che trova in SURE un prezioso alleato.
