Your Language Course

Need to use English in your daily tasks at work and feel you could do with some help? Then the English At Work Add-On is just right for you. It has to be combined with our General English course in which our qualified native level teachers will help you gain more confidence when using the English language and improve your fluency and accuracy in speaking, writing, listening and reading.

English At Work Contents
This Add-On helps you improve all aspects of your work communication skills focusing on all areas in a professional context such as writing professional letters and emails, answering phone calls, taking a message, delivering presentations and much more.
The 10 additional lessons are designed for students with an elementary to advanced level of English.

During the English At Work lessons you will work on:

  • Planning, designing and delivering presentations
  • Planning, designing and delivering an elevator pitch
  • Negotiations, interviews and scheduling
  • Reading, listening to and responding to authentic business materials
  • Producing a range of business texts (letters, CVs, emails, social media posts, cover letters, reports etc)
  • Describing data

The 10 Add-on lessons take place Monday to Friday from 1:45 to 3:15 pm after the General English Course and a lunch breach.

If you would like to find out your level of English according to the European Framework of Reference for Languages, take our free online test.

How We Teach

Pair work, group work and individual study patterns: We believe a relaxed learning environment is the most effective way to improve so we use lots of games, task-based activities and discussions which gives our students the chance to use what they learn in real communicative contexts.
We have internet access in all classrooms and interactive whiteboards in some classrooms.
Our syllabus is based around the common European framework.  All other learning materials are provided.  Our teachers’ resource room is well-stocked with classic and new teaching materials.

Once a week all our students are welcome to enjoy socialising over a cup of coffee in a local café. A teacher is with you to guide the conversation and ensure you improve your practical English communication skills. There is a particular topic for discussion on each occasion. Moreover, students are welcome to make suggestions and requests.

Progress Review

Your progress is constantly monitored through informal daily assessments in class. On Fridays there is a more formal weekly assessment based on the week’s work and activities. Your progress will be discussed, and your teacher will provide feedback. When it’s felt you are ready to progress to the next Level, a meeting is held with you, together with the Director of Studies.

Weekly activities

These vary from orientation walks and general discussion to pub evenings, tenpin bowling, crazy golf, Lazer quest, museum visits, board games and so much more. We are also open to any suggestions. Social activities are a priority and a fabulous way to mix with other nationalities and improve your English while having fun. We run these activities even with 1 or 2 students participating which happens just once or twice a year.
