Abstract
Con el objetivo de preparar un curso introductorio de nivelación para los estudiantes de Medicina y Estomatología de la FCM "Dr. Ernesto Che Guevara de la Serna" al comenzar el primer año de la carrera se realizó una revisión de los contenidos del libro Changes 1 y se determinaron aquellos contenidos de mayor dificultad para dichos estudiantes, unida a la observación en clases, y a la valoración de la dificultades y de las experiencias de los docentes durante ocho años de aplicación de la serie Changes; además, se valoró la heterogeneidad de la composición de los grupos de alumnos como resultado del incremento de las diferentes vías de ingreso. Todo ello permitió agrupar los contenidos de gramática y vocabulario imprescindibles para poder enfrentar el libro Changes 1, derivado de las necesidades de comunicación a partir de un enfoque basado en las funciones comunicativas de la lengua inglesa.
