Introduction

There are literally thousands of ways you can try to improve your spoken and written English and communication, including taking numerous online and offline courses. 

By all means, you should try them out. Learn how to order breakfast in English at a five star restaurant, or find out the best ways to open a conversation with someone at a party, or learn how to draft a flawless business letter. 

Will that serve your purpose of working remotely with high potential international startups, getting promotions, collaborating effectively with global teams, and making effective presentations to foreign clients and the senior-most management?

If you have any doubts, just do a quick google search and you will find a lot of generic courses for learning English, that are perhaps more suitable for teenagers learning a new language, but not created specifically for working software engineers. 

It is a routine story that software engineers try to learn English from a generic English course, and then fail to even stay interested because what they learn is clearly not what they needed to learn.

Why? 

You know the answer as well as I do. Honestly, I cannot think of a single generic English language course that will teach you what you actually need to learn as an international professional or remote worker.

Now what if there was a course where you started fine tuning your English communication by conveying technical information in correct English in specific business situations typical for working with international clients and remote work,such as:

  • Requirement gathering and analysis
  • Client meetings
  • Creating client proposals
  • Performance reviews
  • Professional presentations
  • Pitching to international clients
  • Resolving disputes within the team
  • Stand up meetings and feedback meetings for your own team
  • Inspiring and influencing your peers and team
  • Using social media to get more opportunities

Learning objectives of this course

The objective of this course is to enable you to communicate effectively using corporate English communication in the most important work contexts faced by international professionals and remote workers on a day-to-day basis. 

Learn how to: 

  • Interact with international clients in English at an offsite location
  • Write technical documentation and manuals in English for a global customer base
  • Present reports, analyses, client proposals, and reviews 
  • Negotiate with senior management and colleagues, or perform other management functions 
  • Find the right, precise words so that your conversation is not full of awkward pauses and fillers
  • Display superior and persuasive communication skills during important job interviews
  • Go past the stagnation in entry-level or mid-level jobs because of superior skills 
  • Access international opportunities as a remote freelance worker who can serve clients across the globe

What is unique about this course?

  • This is NOT a generic course on improving your English accent or general talk, or breakfast ordering skills - it directly focuses on improving your day-to-day client communication to succeed professionally, based on real-life scenarios. 
  • Apart from practical lessons, you will have access to numerous templates to use so that you can improve your daily communication.
  • You will learn through Skill Arbitrage’s  unique teaching methodology, comprising classes, exercises and in-line feedback on your submissions. 
  • You will have 3 weekly classes of 1.5 hours and perform 3 assignments every week. You will learn 2 skills and conduct outreach with potential clients every week. 
  • Any doubt regarding a topic shall be addressed within 24 hours.
  • To pass the course, you must complete at least 50% of the assignments and attempt an MCQ test. The average study time required is about 1 hour per day, at your own place. If you miss a class, you can watch a recording.
