Why online Business English lessons instead of in-company lessons?
Many academies and in-company lessons have their students sit through their lessons with very little speaking practice, which is often the most immediate skill to improve. Drawing on an academic and traditional approach, they go over large amounts of grammar and reading activities, while neglecting speaking practice.
In cases in which there is a focus on speaking, group lesson dynamics don't allow much speaking time to each student, and their mistakes often go uncorrected. When companies urgently need their staff to boost their communication skills in English, the conversational topics in class are hardly ever relevant to their daily work. Not quite a practical way to go!
The easiest way for academies to recruit teachers is to resort on young expat travelers who, although holding a hard-earned ESL teaching certificate, lack the experience and commitment required to excel and meet the rising demands of today's English-speaking business world. Working face to face, they can only rely on the local pool of teachers.
Paired with a frantic work life, corporate students often lose motivation and start missing lessons or quit altogether, since they are regarded as a worthless break into their very tight agenda. Such organisations fail to make the most of their potential in the international market because their problems with English carry on.
