The organisation and dedication of the teachers during the course is of the highest quality, ensuring you feel comfortable and that you have time to discover Cambridge University and Caius College through private tours, interesting visits and a very active social programme.
Last but not least, lunches and dinners are organised with English speaking people from various countries, providing the opportunity to be in real life situations and to exchange different ideas and experiences with different people.
I would recommend this intensive Business English course to anyone who wants to improve their language in a short period of time.”
Hassina Harkati
Lawyer - Corporate ClientThe course I had the chance to go on in Cambridge was a great experience.
I got good results and felt at ease using the expressions I learnt, and sharing opinions with other people during lessons, dinners and talks. Thanks to this intensive English course, I could break away from my limited English and I could explore the use of nuance and diplomatic language.
This course consists of a custom-made training programme and is very genuinely adapted to professional life. Compared to a classic English programme, the teachers tailor their course to the trainee’s needs and do not follow typical lessons that you can find on the internet, etc. I am absolutely convinced that immersion in an English country is the best way to improve your English in a short period of time. This immersion is an excellent way to make the most of every opportunity to speak English from breakfast to dinner including lessons, meals and a very active social programme.
I advise everyone who wants to improve their business English as well as their general English to have a look at this course.”
Alice Armstrong-Scales
Business English Teacher & High Performance CoachIt is always a great pleasure to teach these 5-day immersion courses with the Cambridge College of English. From a teacher’s point of view, it is the perfect opportunity to tailor the course to suit the needs of both the group and the individuals.
The course is very intensive so we are able to cover a lot of ground and through the varied activities and busy social programme, the students are given the chance to put all their learning into practice on a daily basis. It is very rewarding to witness them becoming more and more confident and relaxed as the days go by and to listen to them communicate more effectively, enjoying the use of newly learnt phrases and nuance.
The beautiful surroundings of Cambridge University and the incredible service given by the staff and fellows of the College provide an exceptionally privileged environment in which to live and work.”
Diana Furniss
Business English Teacher & High Performance CoachHaving taught many intensive courses, primarily for French learners, I can honestly say that this is the only one that offers a sprinkle of magic as well as the opportunity to learn English in an exceptional environment.
By spending one week at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge University, learners are transported into a world that is so very British, a place where they can grasp the essence of what being English is about, where they will have every opportunity to put their newly acquired English into practice during lunches and dinners with guests from all walks of life and finally, where they will be given the necessary time and coaching to overcome their own specific difficulties in communicating in English.
The focus of the course content depends on learner needs, but fundamentally, it’s about helping learners gain the confidence and the autonomy to be better communicators in English when they return to their everyday life.”
