About course

So that "Present Perfect" and "Past Simple" are no longer confused and we can tell our friends more about our holiday than "It was fine".

Throughout the course, you review and reinforce the grammar rules you already know, including tenses, compound sentences, and the use of modal verbs. Expand your vocabulary in areas such as work, interests, travel, culture, etc. Learn new phrases that will enrich your language - practising them in real conversations so that they become natural for you to use. On top of that you'll also work systematically to improve your written communication in different styles.

Work with authentic texts and audio recordings to improve your understanding of written and spoken English. You'll no longer just read textbooks, but also simplified books and newspaper articles. You'll listen to real conversations, podcasts or watch videos - all to reinforce quick understanding of English in real-life or work situations.

In our intermediate courses we focus on gaining fluency, correct pronunciation, and the ability to communicate effectively. It is important for you to learn not to wait "until you know", but to put into practice what you already know. Group discussions and interactive games will help you do this, so you will experience a lot of them on this course.

Testimonials

My classes have definitely improved my English. My communication with my colleagues from abroad and presentations have become a lot more efficient.

Michal Maruška
Ringier Slovakia

It was my best choice of language school. The teacher recommended me extra things to study that I had not even heard of before.

Ján Lontoš

The Bridge language school means an extremely good teaching experience, for me for sure. Everyone is very flexible, ready to communicate anytime and on a friendly basis. They always try to accommodate my needs. The teachers are very professional and friendly. I have experience with several language schools, The Bridge has given me something extra.

Martin Bahurinský
Legal Services Department

English is important for working in our law firm, and that is why we provide our team members with the opportunity to gain language training so that they can continue to improve and develop.
We have been cooperating with The Bridge language school for several years. Their services, and the work of their lecturers, are at a high level. They always try to meet the demands of our "students" and provide them with quality language teaching.

Eva Sedničková

Thanks to our teacher, we are all really motivated to learn. We improve and move forward really quickly.

Janka Bérešová

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..

Zuzana Kaňuchová
HR manager

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

As far as I´m concerned, the Bridge – English Language Centre, is the best option for learning the language. I have been in many courses, but if you want to learn more just theoretical grammar, if you want to really understand, read, write and speak fluently, then the Bridge is the best option. From my perspective it has been a great investment, worth my time and money.

Ing. Jarmila Halgašová
Member of Slovak Parliament, SAS

I can't imagine a better teacher than Mary, we really clicked. I really appreciate that you do your best to assign teachers to students also based on personality and character.

David Zemčák

We have been cooperating with the Bridge for several years. I appreciate their attitude towards us as clients and their innovative approach to our employees as students. The progress in their English is significant. They invest into their teachers, which reflects in our language improvement. I have a great personal experience with individual classes, which help me not just to improve my English skills, but also to empower me for important presentations and meetings held in English.
