    Currently we run language training in around 20 cities in Poland.

    In accordance with the needs of our clients, the majority of our language training takes place on the firm' own premises.

    Participants tend to prefer lessons to be organized in this manner since it gives them the following benefits:

    • Most business people value the effective usage of time. If the language training takes place in their place of work, participants do not lose the time they would have spent traveling to other locations.
    • The attendance at lessons organized in one's place of work is frequently higher.
    • Participants in business English courses often ask for assistance from their teacher with the preparation of materials in English that are connected with their work (e.g. preparing a presentation or writing an e-mail) - organizing the training on the client's premises makes it easier for participants to take advantage of such assistance and heightens the proximity of the lessons to real business life.

     

    Format regular 1 or 2 lessons per week each consisting of 2 teaching units for a minimum of two semesters (September - January, February - June, or according to the client's preferred timings), or for a defined period of time as part of a block of lessons (e.g. 40-80 teaching units)
