Language Coaching
I can offer language coaching courses, designed in partnership with the client to precisely determine their needs and objectives.
Analyse and improve language skills
This consists in analysing and helping perfect the customer’s language skills with the aim of achieving greater ease and fluency in a spoken context. Emphasis is placed on enlarging everyday vocabulary, correctly using the terminology specific to the customer’s profession or sector of industry, and improving pronunciation. This is achieved through, notably, role playing and simulation. These techniques are extremely effective, encouraging thinking and creativity on the part of the customer, who can therefore develop and practice both their language and behavioural skills in a fictitious situation, a nonthreatening setting. This type of service is not to be confused with language learning. Language coaching is designed for professionals who already have a good working knowledge of the language concerned (English or French) and who are required to take part in situations where it is necessary to speak in the language of their audience (international conferences or trade fairs, meetings with foreign customers or delegations, etc.). Moreover, should the customer request it, LanguageApart can review the written materials that will be used/displayed in these different situations (speeches, presentations, training aids, etc.) in order to improve their clarity and their effectiveness.
for professionals who already have a good command of the language
Language coaching is intended for professionals who already have a good working knowledge of the language and who have to work in situations where it is necessary to speak the language of their audience (international seminars or trade fairs, various meetings with foreign clients or delegations, training, etc.).
Revision service
If the client so wishes, I can also review the various written materials that will be used/projected during the presentations (speeches, PowerPoint presentations, course materials, etc.) in order to improve their clarity and effectiveness with the target audience.
