Which industries does Simmonds cover in Berlin?

We offer industry-specific English training for startups, FinTech, pharma/biotech, automotive, creative industries, and medicine in Berlin. Each industry receives tailored content with specialist vocabulary.

What is the Simmonds Method?

The Simmonds Method combines four pillars: native-speaking teachers with 20+ years of experience, AI avatar technology for 24/7 practice, interactive blog exercises, and data-driven progress tracking. Human + AI = faster results.

Do you offer in-person courses in Berlin?

Yes. Our Berlin office at Kurfürstendamm 30 in Charlottenburg is ideal for in-person courses. We also offer online formats and blended learning - or we come to your office.

How does industry-specific training differ from general Business English?

Industry-specific training focuses on your specialist vocabulary and typical communication situations in your industry. A startup founder practises investor pitches, a pharmaceutical researcher practises conference presentations. The AI avatar is trained with your company materials.

Can the AI avatar be trained with our specialist vocabulary?

Yes. The AI avatar can be trained with your company documents, presentations, and industry-specific materials. Your team practises exactly the English they need in their daily work.

What does industry-specific English training in Berlin cost?

Costs depend on team size, format, and scope. Language training is VAT-exempt. Contact us for an individual quote - the initial consultation and needs analysis are free.

General Business English Is Not Enough in Berlin

Berlin is international, but every industry has its own vocabulary. A startup founder needs different English than a pharmaceutical researcher or a FinTech compliance manager.
