Training that meets your needs

I believe training should be highly interactive and personalized. Communication between the trainer and the participants is encouraged just as much as among the participants in the group. I use a range of methods, materials, approaches, and techniques-- depending on the needs of the learners.

In order to meet your learning demands, your course syllabus will be created based on a needs analysis and placement check.  The topics will be determined from your specific needs together with you. There is usually a focus on specific vocabulary, typical everyday situations in which you need to operate in English.  The language targets and overall focus is monitored and adjusted regularly to make the training as effective as possible.

Maximum learning can be reached most effectively in 1-1 training.  The focus is on your individual needs.  The content, frequency and length of the training are all based on your needs.

For those with little time or live in other places, 1-1 online training may be the answer. I am experienced and qualified to give 1-1 online training. This type of training is very flexible.

Group training at your company is time efficient and effective.  The training takes place weekly and the syllabus is agreed upon before training begins.

In addition to Business English, courses may have a focus such as English for Advertising, English for Telephoning, English for Presentations or others

I can be booked for interactive workshops, presentations or contracted to write and/or edit articles and books.  Some of my past experience in these areas include:
