English for Work and Business English courses

Course Type: Group Tuition Plus, One-to-One

Our intensive English for Work and Business courses combine working in a small group in the mornings to develop General English speaking and listening skills with 1-to-1 classes in the afternoons.

The 1-to-1 classes focus on specific, individual needs and develop your Business English vocabulary and communication skills.  This is done by:

• improving general and social English language skills
• developing specific vocabulary for your area of work and business
• using English for writing emails, negotiating, meetings and telephoning
• giving presentations in English
• raising awareness of intercultural issues and ‘international English’

English for Work and Business courses are 20, 25 or 30 hours per week = 15 or 20 hours of General English in small group + 5, 10 or 15 hours of one-to-one tuition

You will be emailed a 'Needs Analysis' form to complete before the start of your course.  During your first 1-to-1 lesson you and your teacher will put together a study plan for your course.  We encourage you to be active in the preparation and design of your course.  

Whatever your line of business, let us help you to express yourself clearly and precisely. 

Tell us your line of work and we will create a specific Business English course to suit you. Whether you need help in preparing a presentation, writing emails in English, preparing a report or talking on the telephone with English speaking clients or colleagues, ECS Scotland can show you the techniques and help you to gain confidence in using the English language.

All courses include a weekly excursion.
