We believe that teaching English in corporate environments:
- requires a tailor-made approach based on the understanding of the business needs of the company
- can only be effective if the tutor has a good grasp of the company's value proposition and business model
- is a powerful tool that can affect the company's output and influence its profits
- can only be effective if the materials used by the teacher are specific to the company's everyday business activity
- can only be effective if feedback is highly personalised
- flexibility is key to delivering an effective service in corporate environments
"We have been organising English classes for our employees for several years. We have now been working with UPGRADE for over four years and I can say that we are highly satisfied with their methodology and standard of service. UPGRADE have been improving on their teaching techniques and materials throughout the years, delivering consistent high quality services, which are very personable and help our staff to improve their English.
As the organiser of the English courses at CSUC, I conduct surveys and receive direct feedback from class participants. Our employees have always highlighted the methodology used by UPGRADE and the smooth flow of their classes connected with useful routines to improve their English skills. The classes are also very well prepared, but there is always room for controlled improvisation if any specific language issues come up. As a student myself, I can also attest first hand that UPGRADE provide us with high quality language teaching and push us to improve ourselves.”
