The Course
The objective of this course is the development of essential business skills such as presenting, reporting, conducting meetings and socialising in English. As every course is tailor-made to the specific needs of the individual business learner, course content will depend on the participant’s starting level, the target level, the course objectives and the course duration.
Content
Working on a one-to-one basis enables us to concentrate entirely on your specific language and business needs. These may be:
Situational – making a presentation, conducting a series of negotiations, using the telephone, socialising with clients with greater confidence, emailing in English, participating more actively in meetings
Lexical – we work on developing the specific terminology relating to your work or area of business
Skills-based – training will focus on developing your key communication skills – speaking, listening, reading, writing
Grammatical – there may be areas of the language with which you have particular difficulty
Pronunciation – work on pronunciation, stress and intonation to achieve greater authenticity in your use of spoken English
