The Communicative English course is a comprehensive course which is popular among various learners – school and college students, working professionals, home makers, adult learners and people going abroad to English speaking countries. The course covers the four skills of learning any language – listening, speaking, reading and writing.
The course has a coverage of grammar and vocabulary to ensure that you speak and write correct English.
We work on your listening skills, as that is important for your speaking. Today we need to interact with native English speakers and find it difficult to understand what they speak. The listening exercises and then the speaking drills help you achieve confidence in your oral communication.
Speaking assertively, with proper body language and expressions is important. It is also important to manage anxiety and learn the art of convincing and persuasion. The speaking sections are elaborate and help overcome your issues on speaking.
We cover a large number of writing areas and especially business communication like emails and proposals. Similarly, we work on your reading practice through different types of scenarios. Our students find this course especially helpful for placement preparation.
Currently we are offering this course only to colleges and groups of students in a live class mode. The content on our portal comes with the online classes.
