- To develop reading and writing skills
Authentic business communication:
- on the telephone
- by email, fax and telex
- industrial visits and meetings with English
professionals with similar occupations
To develop confidence and fluency so that
participants become aware of their ability to
communicate in the ‘real world’ as well as in
the language classroom environment
Authentic social communication:
- in the evening social programme
- on weekend excursions

To develop language skills required in social
situations and while entertaining guests
OPTION ‘A’: ONE-TO-ONE COURSE
Often the most cost-effective and time efficient alternative as
courses can be closely tailored to professional & social needs.
OPTION ‘B’: CLOSED GROUP COURSE
A ‘Closed Group’ consists of participants from the same
company or organisation with compatible language levels.
This option allows us to concentrate on the specific
professional and linguistic needs which are particular to the
group, and to introduce authentic materials from the client
company. The maximum participants per group is six.
OPTION ‘C’: OPEN GROUP COURSE
The ‘Open Group’ consists of a maximum of 4 participants
from different companies for courses commencing on the
dates specified below. The group is normally mixed-nationality
and participants should have a starting level of lower
intermediate or above.
OPTION ‘D’: COMBINATION COURSE
This option combines 50% one-to-one tuition with 50%
open small group tuition and offers the advantages of both
individual and group tuition; i.e. communication and contact
with participants of different nationalities and commercial
backgrounds for half of the day and concentration on the
individual’s specific language difficulties and requirements in
the other half of the day.
Typical Timetable
The weekly programme is highly intensive and is based on a study programme of 42 hours per week; including 25 contact hours plus 5 to 10 hours of supervised self-access study using the media
centre (language laboratory/video) plus 71 / 2 hours (optional) of social English practice over lunch with a member of the teaching staff plus evening social activities.
