Intensive in-house (stationary) courses in Warsaw
If your employees face new business challenges that require communication in a foreign language, we will be happy to help them meet them. Let’s meet at our office in Mokotów or at your company’s headquarters and let’s get it together!
What is “total immersion”?
The “total immersion” method will help your employees immerse themselves completely in a foreign language – in a short time and in a variety of ways. In this way, we reflect the realities of the foreign business environment, which significantly accelerates language learning.
From 4 to 6 hours of study per day
The course can last up to 6 days, from Monday to Saturday. Regardless of the learning period chosen, we guarantee your employees a few hours a day of solid speaking practice.
Each participant of the course will also receive additional language tasks to be undertaken between meetings with the teacher, in order to fully immerse themselves in the language. Learning, throughout the course, will be focussed on the goals set in advance.
