Intercultural Training
It is estimated that between 10 and 50% of expatriation projects fail due to inadequate training prior to relocation to a new country!
Indeed, the knowledge of a foreign language alone is often not enough to work internationally in a successful way. Going beyond the target language to understand the attitudes and skills to communicate successfully with people from other cultures is essential. Implicit rules of behaviour such as values and beliefs can affect working practices and relationships in a significant way.
If you wish to maximise the benefits of interacting with others in diverse environments, you can explore the range of workshops I offer on this theme by clicking here.
Continuous Professional Development in education and training
CPD as it is often referred to in education is an ongoing process of developing one’s knowledge and skills and staying up to date with the latest evolution and research in the field. It enables teachers and trainers to take stock of their career, reflecting on their performance so far and how they may wish to enhance their practices in the near future.
I offer courses to help you better understand your clients or students’ cultural heritage background so you can build a relationship of trust and respect by adapting your teaching/training practice and approach to their learning style or expectations and ultimately respond in a more suitable way to their needs.
Bespoke Language Courses for Professionals, non-professionals and international students.
As your company develops internationally, you may need to use business English to present to an audience at a conference, greet customers or suppliers, chair meetings, write emails to foreign counterparts and many other professional tasks.
If you’re an international student preparing for an entry exam which will give you access to a university or business school, you may need help and advice on how to reach a higher score in the IELTS or TOEIC exam.
Finally, you may simply wish to learn or improve your French or Arabic for non-professional reasons as you travel around more globally and want to become more autonomous.
Whatever your need and requirement, please click here to find out about a suitable group session or tailor-made course to meet your specific objective be it online or in person.
Translation
Businesses are increasingly going global, developing an international presence and operating on an international scale. Writing and reading emails, contracts, brochures, websites and any other text often needs to be made accessible to all by switching from one mother tongue to another without losing the essence of the original source of information, If you have documents you wish to translate from English to French or French to English, I can help you do so or recommend other colleagues in the field. Please call me for more information or simply send me an email with the details of your request so I can send you a proposal.
