Are you looking to hone your existing advanced language skills even further? In this course, you will study English at the highest level, so you can communicate fluently and with flexibility.

    General

    This C2-level course will help you to communicate in English with greater confidence, sophistication and precision. Under the guidance of a skilled language teacher, you’ll polish your skills and learn to understand the subtlest nuances of the language. The focus is on speaking and actively practising with realistic (work) situations. This means everything you learn can be put into practice straight away. 

    In the final two classes, you decide for yourself what skills you want to focus on through two optional workshops. This ensures the course is perfectly tailored to your needs.

    After this English course, you will be able to:

    • use the English language at an exceptionally high level, enabling you to communicate with ease and an awareness of tone;
    • fluently join a conversation or discussion without difficulty, adding finer nuances to your message;

    Approach and content

    Focus on speaking

    During classes, you will be fully immersed in English. At C2 level, we explore the finer intricacies of the language. You will expand your vocabulary to enhance your lexical flexibility and range. More advanced aspects of grammar and pronunciation will also be addressed to improve accuracy. Sessions will include a high proportion of speaking activities, enabling you to apply new knowledge in practice and build fluency.

    How to get the best out of yourself

    During the course, you’ll receive plenty of personal feedback from the teacher. This will help you identify exactly what you’re already doing well and where you can further improve your English communication skills. In addition to a course book, we also use a comprehensive digital learning environment, which contains exercises and quizzes to help you further develop your skills outside of class as well.
