About course

If you are learning English for work or career, then the Business English course is for you. English is considered the most widely spoken language internationally, making it the dominant language in the business world. Even if you have a good language level, studying Business English will allow you to develop the key communication skills that are useful in business. By mastering the specific communication skills needed in the workplace, you can gain the confidence to build strong relationships with colleagues and clients.

The course is set up in a very practical way to help you communicate better in everyday work situations. We discuss topics from the world of business and economics, practising language skills needed in real situations such as work meetings, negotiations, and communicating with customers. Together we also simulate situations in which you need to master more difficult situations like client complaints or interviewing a job applicant. Learn how to write understandable emails in English with special emphasis on typical stylistic devices of business English. Practice all the skills in a variety of highly interactive activities in a small group of up to 8 students, so you certainly won't get bored. On top of that, in addition to learning the language you will definitely deepen your expertise through discussions on business topics and issues.

Testimonials

Profesia has been cooperating with the Bridge since 2009. For us, language learning at The Bridge is an excellent investment. Since our owner is an English- speaking company, our employees often must present their work, results and achievements in English. I should say that thanks to the professional approach of The Bridge, our employees have moved to levels where they have no problems delivering presentations, taking part in meetings etc..

"The Bridge language school was love at first sight! I worked with its founders in many projects before the unique human genius of this institution, its friendly and accommodating staff, professional and experienced teachers attracted me as a student. I am grateful as since then English has been my great passion! And I'm about to put the kids here for their day camp, too. We're real fans! :-))"

The course was very useful for me. I was looking forward to all of my online lessons and it certainly reflected in improving my English.

Vladislav Malast

Education is an integral part of our growth. We have transferred our education online, including English lessons, as English is crucial for us. We are an export business partner with an international team. We prefer group education, as it maintains a higher level of motivation, as each of us is naturally sociable with a greater or lesser degree of competitiveness.
