GENERAL AND BUSINESS ENGLISH
Do you....
...find it hard to communicate fluently with other English speakers?
You can speak about familiar topics but you can't express your ideas about less familiar ones.
...need to improve your English language skills for future studies?
You want to study in an English-speaking school or university in future and you know your English level needs to be stronger.
....need to write better emails, reports or articles at work?
You have to write a lot in English at work but it takes you a long time to write anything and you never feel happy with what you write.
...want to take part in business meetings more confidently?
You sit and listen but are too afraid to speak in case you make mistakes. You feel you cannot explain your ideas and you get ignored
...want to give more effective presentations?
You need to give presentations for your university course, your academic career or your job but you lack confidence when you speak in front of others
....feel your English would improve more quickly if you had a teacher to help you
You have a busy life and studying English gets forgotten. You study alone but have a lot of questions about language rules you do not understand. You feel a teacher would motivate and support you.
