Englisch B1/B2 – Just Talk Club: Speak English with Confidence

The Just Talk Club is all about building confidence when speaking English at work. At the heart of the course are 8 weekly online sessions that are 100% conversation-based. Through roleplays, tasks and discussions in pairs and small groups, you will get plenty of speaking practice in a friendly and relaxed environment, improve your fluency and learn how to deal with common communication challenges.

Before each session, you will receive an email introducing the week's topic, useful phrases and suggestions for preparation. It will also include practical advice and self-reflection exercises to help you feel more confident speaking English at work.

After each session, you will receive personalized feedback from the trainer on your strengths and areas for improvement. Throughout the course, you will also have access to the trainer's client website with grammar explanations, practice exercises, useful phrases, pronunciation tips and other resources. Where appropriate, the trainer will recommend specific resources based on your individual feedback.

The course combines live online sessions with self-study (blended learning). We recommend allowing around 45 minutes between sessions, with additional resources available for further learning at your own pace.
