About course

The English course for advanced B2 students is in high demand and is therefore offered both online and in person, on different days and times. Every format aims to overcome your individual language weaknesses and develop all language skills. At B2 level, many students are already quite comfortable with spoken and written communication, can watch a film or podcast in English, and can handle discussion on topics close to their heart. However, they often lack confidence in expressing themselves, make grammatical mistakes, and can find longer conversations in English stressful. Writing an email can sometimes take longer due to uncertainty in the use of grammatical structures and tenses. Our General English course for B2 level is specifically designed to address these challenges.

The course will focus on improving your grammar, with an emphasis on correct use of tenses and more complex grammatical structures in a practical conversational setting to instill correct habits. Practice the speed and fluency of your English communication in a small group setting and with feedback from the tutor. In class, you'll enjoy a variety of practical exercises such as discussions, simulations of real situations, and work with authentic texts and audiovisual materials. You definitely won't get bored while your English becomes more fluent, richer, and more accurate.

We’ll also focus on improving your written communication skills so that you can write emails and other texts faster and with more confidence, alongside greatly increasing your capacity to watch and understand podcasts or videos in English for long periods of time without extreme effort, opening the way to further fluency in the language.

Who is the course for

The course is designed for students who speak, listen, and write English at an intermediate level. However, they want to feel more confident using English in a variety of situations, to communicate correctly in both grammar and style, all without stress.

Emma Wyatt

BIO

Emma has a master’s degree in literature from Queen Mary’s College, University of London, a CELTA diploma from the International House London, and has recently completed the Coaching Practioner course with the Bridge, gaining her accreditation with the EMCC shortly after.

She has been teaching for nearly 10 years and was integrating coaching methods into her lessons before participating in the coaching course.

She sees coaching as a great way to get to the heart of what our students are looking for from their language learning and a useful resource for teacher's to help themselves as well and make sure they're getting what they want from their career.

Workshop: Why do I teach?

Often, we focus on our students and what they're getting from the learning experience, but what about us as teachers? What are your core values for your work/life and how can you better bring those into the classroom in order to make sure you're getting the most out of the experience too? In this session we will identify what your core values are and how to better make sure that they are in congruence with your everyday teaching

Testimonials

I appreciate my teacher's approach to her teaching and my learning. Everything was absolutely great.

Barbora Semková

"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! :-))"

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.

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..
