Hello and welcome to my training course, Business English: Grammar, Meetings and More.
If you're looking for a course which helps you develop greater mastery over business English, I can help!
Let me ask you some simple questions:
Have you ever felt you lack confidence in the workplace because you're not sure if what you're about to say is accurate, or even polite?
Do you worry about making the points you want to make in a meeting and being understood?
Or maybe you're a senior manager with extensive knowledge and experience explaining terms in your own language, but you have problems expressing yourself in English?
If THIS IS YOU then this course addresses each of these issues through a comprehensive series of videos, lectures and resources.
MY GOAL FOR YOU:
I want to share important skills with individuals working, or planning to work, in the business sector because I know the value of self-development in this area. I regularly coach business professionals on how to develop their English language skills in the workplace and many of these individuals have progressed professionally and continue to do so.
NEXT STEPS?
Feel free to watch my introductory video which explains more about the content of the course and any preview lectures that are of interest.
In this course you will learn and develop some excellent skills to help you advance your existing English language ability, in your place of business.
I will give you the building blocks you need to take your current skills to the next level, enabling you to grow in confidence and effectiveness.
This course covers practical aspects of business English such as grammar, key phrases and idioms, and a step-by-step guide on how to manage the meeting process from start to finish.
By the time you complete this course you will feel more confident communicating in English both in (and out) of the work environment.
I look forward to partnering with you and helping you achieve your personal and professional goals through English language development.
See you in class.
Sincerely,
Colette Goodson
