Specialised Foreign Language Courses

Courses formats

Short-term Business Training

Training sessions focus on building speaking and writing skills for business communication. The course not only includes instruction on typical business constructions, but also role-play with student participation. Thus students have an opportunity to practice what they have learned and the instructor will be able to evaluate, comment and give feedback and recommendations for the next training session. Courses last 1-3 days

Topics:

  • Business Telephoning

  • Business Writing

  • Meeting and Negotiations

  • Presentations


Short-term training sessions are available for all types of programmes: general, business and specialised.

Intensive Courses

We offer intensive and «language immersion» programmes, between three and eight days long, at recreation and retreat centres near Moscow. Your employees will be accompanied by our teachers, both Russian and native speakers. Training sessions are held daily in the morning and afternoon. In addition, students will participate in a variety of entertaining activities in the study language. All communication between participants even in their free time will be in the study language only. These off-site programmes are based on General and Business, as well as special foreign language courses for all levels, from Beginner to Advanced.

Intensive courses are also available in our office on Petrovka St. and in the clients' own Moscow-based company offices. Eight to nine hours of classes, held daily for one to three weeks will significantly improve students' language levels and will help them accumulate the necessary skills. 

Regional Training Sessions

We also organise intensive corporate training sessions for your branches in other Russian cities. The format of the program is similar to those held near Moscow. In this case our teacher will travel to your regional office and deliver a one or two-week course of the chosen type with classes held daily. The company's wishes and goals determine the schedule and the type of the programme.

Speaking Club

We also offer classes specifically focused on improving speaking skills. A native speaker goes to the company once a week during lunch time and talks with those interested about various subjects (from everyday situations to the ones related to their specialty). Topics are chosen in advance, so employees have time to prepare for class discussions. Depending on the company's wishes the Club can meet twice a week or more.
