Non-Examination Courses:
Our courses run at all levels, from beginners to advanced, focusing on developing your language skills in the 4 main areas: speaking, writing, listening and reading comprehension.
As mentioned above, the fact that all our group courses have from 3 to a maximum of 8 participants makes for generally more individual participation and expression.
Specialised Courses:
We also offer specialised courses, over a 2 to 3-month period, focused on developing and improving specific skills. For example, Telepnoning Skills, Interview Techniques ...
These courses are of interest to a growing number of people who would like to obtain a particular certificate, recognised as proof of their language skills by so many companies, in different sectors of industry and international business.

The lessons in general run midday, late afternoon and / or evenings.
The type of courses we offer and run for many companies vary from company to company, depending on the needs and objectives of the company concerned.
We also offer the possibility of running examination preparation courses (as outlined above).
More often than not, in-company courses run during the working day or midday (e.g. 11:30-13:00 / 12:00-13:30).
Once again, it varies from company to company but, in general, group courses run twice a week: 2 x 90-minute lessons per week. The number of participants is 2 to a maximum of 8.
There tends to be a large demand for one-to-one (one-to-two) courses which are typically more specialised and / or intensive.
Before commencing any type of in-company course, we recommend meeting for a personal presentation and preliminary discussion. This, in turn, is then followed by a needs analysis and language level test of the participants involved.
On a regular basis (over periods agreed with the company concerned), we complete and provide Individual Progress Reports on all courses together, if necessary, with a reassessment of objectives.
