James Answers Your Questions About Corporate Training
Internationally active companies need employees who communicate confidently in English. Our corporate clients report better negotiation outcomes, faster project completions, and stronger client relationships. Business English is a direct investment in your competitiveness — with measurable ROI.
We start with a free conversation with your HR or L&D department: Which departments need English? For which situations? We then assess each participant individually (CEFR A1–C2) and create a tailored training concept — all free and non-binding.
Absolutely. We work with over 10 industries — from automotive and insurance to tech startups to pharma and engineering. The AI avatar is configured with your company materials: product catalogues, presentations, technical terminology. Your employees practise exactly the scenarios they need in their daily work.
We are the only provider in Germany that combines native-speaking trainers with AI avatar technology. Trainers deliver strategy, cultural nuance, and personal feedback. The AI avatar enables 24/7 practice between sessions. Human + AI = faster, more sustainable results.
Yes, we offer in-house training directly at your office. Alternatively, your employees can train at our locations in Hannover (Schaufelder Str. 11) or Berlin (Kurfürstendamm 30). Or completely online via Zoom, Teams, or Meet — nationwide. Many corporate clients combine all formats.
Costs depend on group size, training format, and duration. Online one-to-one lessons from €60/hour, group training and on-site formats on request. Language instruction is VAT-exempt (§4 Nr.21 UStG). Contact us for a customised quote — the needs analysis is free.
