English for Work Course series

The Web’s most effective language school

In today’s global society, more and more people need to use English to some degree in their work. And while General

English courses are great at improving a person’s overall level of English, people who need to use English in their

work can greatly benefit from a course which focuses on their specific needs.

The Net Languages English for Work modules are designed to do just this. There are a total of nine modules

available at two levels: Lower Intermediate (B1) and Upper Intermediate (B2). Each module focuses on a specific

area of using English in the workplace and can be combined with as many other modules as necessary. In this way

we can cater to each person’s specific work-related needs.

The modules are:

• Applying for a Job• Banking and Finance• Dealing with the Public• Making Presentations (B2) / Presenting Your Company (B1)• Meetings• Negotiating and Selling• Telephoning• Travelling

• Writing

English for Work Course series

The Web’s most effective language school

Each module is broken down into six topic-related sections in which language is contextualised, developed and practised in an engaging and interactive way. Learners are given the opportunity to practise using the language in their personal contexts in the tutorial sections of the module. These tutorials encourage students to make the language as relevant as possible to their specific work-related needs (Premium version).

The modules include a high level of interaction between learners and the course material. The exercises include constructive feedback which helps students to learn from their mistakes and reflect on their learning.

Language is always presented in context and students are always asked to focus on meaning before they look at form. Exercises are carefully staged to take students through guided-discovery exercises which effectively engage them in cognitive processes. This approach is extremely effective and means that students are much more able to use the language they have learned appropriately.

Net Languages offers two versions of the English for Work modules, a Premium version and an Essential version. The Premium version contains tutorials for practice with an online tutor or teacher. Each Premium module contains between 22 and 25 hours of study material. The Essential version is a self-access version which does not include these sections and contains between 18 and 20 hours of study material.

Both versions of the course can be used as 100% online course or as part of a blended learning package.

Both versions are programmed in html5 and are fully compatible with iPads, Android tablets, laptops and PCs.

The material allows full tracking and exporting options.

The course is designed for young adults and adults who need to improve how they use English in a work context or who are planning to work in a job in which they will need to use English.

It is ideal for use with universities, government institutions and corporations.
