Phone Training
Language training by telephone has been an established training method for many years in Europe and the US, and for good reason. Telephone lessons focus you and build your ability to concentrate intensively on your speaking and listening skills. Such lessons also help you quite naturally to 'tame' your fear of the phone when you have to talk in a foreign language.
Telephone training is ideal for:
- Frequent travellers
- People living in remote locations
- Anyone with only limited time available to study.
All trainers are trained to teach complete beginners as well as more advanced students and, where necessary, explanations are given in the trainee's mother tongue (or English) to help them get started.
At the start of a training cycle, we will send you a full needs analysis to enable your trainer to get to know you better, as well as a level test where appropriate. When training gets underway, you will also be able to exchange documents with your trainer by email, and often you will use the phone while sitting at your computer and going through online materials together.
Advantages
- All lessons last 30-45 minutes only and they can take place any time between 8am and 8pm, every day including weekends, and at your office, home or even while on assignment
- Your trainer conducts your lesson at your own pace and without you wasting any time travelling
- By limiting this effort to a shorter duration, this guarantees the highest level of concentration, lesson after lesson.
