Language training works better when level, goal, format and communication context are clear before the course begins. The consultation helps determine whether you need placement, private coaching, small groups, corporate training, an intensive or a focused communication lab.

  • Clarify your current level and whether placement is needed
  • Define your target situations: work, service, exam, relocation, calls, emails or presentations
  • Choose between private coaching, small group training, corporate programs or communication labs
  • Identify realistic priorities for speaking, writing, grammar, pronunciation, fluency or tone
  • Prepare the information needed for a tailored offer or training proposal
  • Receive a clearer next step instead of guessing the right course
