Your specific language goals are:

• to hold informal conversations with business colleagues
  

• to take part in business discussions
  
• to make presentations and conduct meetings
  
• to talk with confidence on the telephone
  
• to write accurate and informative reports, letters and faxes
  
• to broaden business-related vocabulary
  

How OISE will help you achieve your goals

Typically the course covers:

• review of the grammar points needing attention to develop accuracy in the use of the language
• development of the vocabulary used in business situations including small talk for cross-cultural bonding
• interactive and dynamic oral practice sessions to encourage the expression of ideas and opinions, incorporating new vocabulary and idioms as well as manipulating sophisticated and more complex language structures
• comprehension practice to help the participants acquire a comfortable understanding of a written document or a spoken presentation, be it of a general nature or business related
• role-plays to stimulate a wide range of business scenarios including presentations, negotiations, telephone conversations, and meetings
  

Throughout the programme students are actively encouraged to express their opinions as they would in their own workplace.
