Description
Are you an administrative professional looking to strengthen your English language skills, whether for personal or professional reasons?
Then this is the course for you. Teachers aren’t the only ones who need help with their English!
The course is designed to meet the needs of administrative staff and other professionals working in language schools and educational establishments who wish to undertake administrative tasks in English, both orally and in written form.
The basic aim of English for Administrative Staff is to help admin staff to develop productive and receptive language skills in English, while at the same time focusing on the central need of administrative staff: to receive and transmit information precisely and efficiently.
The course will cover topics common to typical office activities, as well as more personal areas related to office work, such as socializing or greeting visitors and making them feel comfortable, talking about office tasks, and the qualities and abilities of administrative staff.
The courses will offer you the opportunity to discuss topics of your interest and gain confidence in reading, writing, listening, and speaking the English language.
You will also meet your colleagues who work in education from other countries and make lasting connections to continue practicing your English even after completing the course.
Improve English vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and conversational skills;
Undertake administrative tasks requiring the use of English more effectively and confidently;
Develop productive and receptive skills in English in order to be able to carry out their job efficiently;
Feel more confident in dealings with visitors, members of school/ college staff, parents, and students both orally and in writing;
Immerse in local history and culture;
Meet colleagues who work in education from other countries in Europe and around the world;
Acquire first-hand experience as a student to better connect with the students in your school.
