Business English in Berlin: Corporate Training & Online Courses
Five formats, clear prices, James in his own words – in 100 seconds.
Transcript
We need to talk about magical thinking because magical thinking is actually going to stop you from learning. Business English in Berlin, in person, online or blended. Live training with native-speaking trainers since 2004.
Hi, my name is James Simmonds and I'm an English teacher based in Germany with over 20 years of experience. Online English courses, in-person lessons, blended learning, private lessons, group training, five formats for your working day, meetings, presentations, negotiations, and emails. Review the agenda, explain the key points, and ask for a proposal.
English for your working day, in person in Berlin, in the heart of City West, online for remote teams with flexible schedules. But osmosis or soaking in a warm bath of English dialogue with the subtitles on isn't going to help you present the latest figures to your multinational team on Monday morning. So to start with, we need to differentiate between passive understanding and active learning.
Live training from 90 euros for 90 minutes. Remember, the brain is not a sponge, it's a muscle, and you need to exercise it. Start with your free needs analysis at Simmonds, Kurfürstendamm 30, Berlin.
