Standard Business Courses
|
Based on the communicative approach, all courses use real-life situations and activities which allow clients to become familiar with the foreign language via real communication, right from the very first session. Our EFL Business courses ensure rapid progress thanks to a carefully structured linguistic programme which integrates grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation tasks, together with constant monitoring.
These courses are geared mainly to professional people with work experience who need to improve their knowledge of the language in a series of business contexts. The main aim of such courses is to develop the client's communication and comprehension skills by participation in discussions on business and management related topics.

Language for Special Purposes
|
Our specialised courses are aimed at people working in sectors where there is high exposure to foreign languages, professionals who need to attend meetings, speak at conferences, conduct negotiations and represent their company. These courses are aimed to provide a high degree of linguistic autonomy and competence in a specific professional field. This is achieved by the use of practical role-play exercises, such as making presentations and telephone calls, as well as taking part in negotiations and social situations.
Courses can be on an individual or group basis, and are of a course length suited to the needs of the client company and the participants, who can opt for a normal, semi-intensive or intensive format. All courses are specifically designed according to a careful needs analysis which we carry out before the start; the programme is then sent to the client for approval.

We can develop special workshops according to clients’ needs. Each workshop consists of 4 half days which are dedicated to a particular topic decided by the client, such as Customer Care, Secretarial Skills or Conference Calling.
These workshops should not be confused with our Managerial Seminars however in that they deal with the language and not with the techniques.
