Sign up for the waiting listThe Training
This group course is the result of working with international engineers one-on-one for more than five years. Even though every single one of my clients has unique projects and challenges, there is always a common goal. And there are only a couple of things every single one of them needs to improve their skill set significantly.
This course is the only Technical English Course every engineer needs to achieve their goals of: Â
Discovering the logic behind technical English.
Developing the practical skill set to make English your new superpower.
And there will be no unnecessary fluff because you'll
Learn from a teacher who is an engineer as well.
WHAT'S IN THE COURSE?Â
Kick-Off and Conclusion
Our first and last lesson
Our very first lesson will be in calendar week 40 (exact date will be announced later). We kick off the course by introducing key concepts and discussing course objectives.
The final session is in calendar week 51/2024, serving as a Q&A and a round-up.
Module 1:
Starting fast and furious
You’ll learn to formulate and present your 'elevator pitch.' It's a short intro when meeting new clients or colleagues. We will discuss common downfalls in language learning and how to overcome them. I’ll teach you my success strategy and explain why your accent is valuable. (1 session)
Module 2:
The tech side of English
Business English, Technical English, and Simplified Technical English: what it is and what it isn’t.
Introduction to the only grammar you need (incl. theory, homework, and practical application) and tips on how to make English work for you. (3 sessions, because it's important)
Module 3:
Not fast, but furious - when answering takes too long
How to handle tough situations? How to answer questions quickly + smartly? Strategies to prepare for meetings, presentations, or client conversations because translating from your mother language into English delays everything. (2 sessions)
Module 4:
The unwritten rules of communication
Email writing, report writing, formal vs informal language, and cultural differences around the world.
Let's dive into theory, exercises, and analysis and have lively discussions about it. (2 sessions)
What more?
