Improve your English for real work situations
Speaking English at work can be challenging. You may know what you want to say, but find it difficult to express yourself clearly. Or perhaps you understand English quite well but feel less confident when you need to speak.
During your training, you practise the English you need in your daily work. For example, you can learn to:
- take part in meetings and discussions
- explain your ideas and ask questions
- give presentations
- build relationships with international contacts
- express your opinion in a polite and professional way
Your training is based on your current level, your job and the situations that are important to you.
Why learn English at Regina Coeli?
Regina Coeli is a specialist language institute in the Netherlands, with more than 60 years of experience in personal language training. Our approach helps you make progress in a short time.
Personal lessons
You work one-to-one with experienced language trainers. You receive personal attention and can practise at your own pace.
Training based on your work
Your lessons focus on your job, your industry and your personal goals. You can even use your own presentations, emails or other work materials during your training.
Experienced native-speaking trainers
You learn from trainers with different backgrounds and accents. They help you speak more naturally and understand English in international situations.
Full focus on learning
During an intensive training in Vught, you can step away from your daily work and concentrate fully on improving your English.
Communicate well with people from different cultures
English is used by people all over the world. But speaking the same language does not always mean communicating in the same way. The way people ask questions, give feedback or express disagreement can be different across cultures.
Your language trainers help you understand these differences and choose the right words and tone for each situation. This helps you feel more comfortable when working with people from different countries.
You learn how to:
- adapt your language to different people and situations
- understand different accents and ways of speaking
- avoid misunderstandings
- express yourself naturally while remaining true to yourself
