ES-E 403

Professional English for the Civil Service

Zielgruppe

If your level in English is B1 or higher, and you would like to improve your professional English abilities in a convivial and positive atmosphere, then this course is for you!

Inhalt und Ziele

Improve your English speaking, listening, reading and writing skills in any professional situation, and especially in the context of public administration, politics and government.In this stimulating, interactive, workshop-style course, you will learn to feel more comfortable expressing and understanding complex ideas in international English, and to open up new opportunities for you anywhere English functions as the working language.

We learn together via:

• Guided discussion, building the vocabulary of Austrian and European government and administration, political terminology, and financial, legal, and management language
• Report writing and feedback.
• Focused speaking: practice with presenting a case, arguing a point of view, and negotiating effectively.
• Interactive listening: working with audio texts, extracting key information and responding appropriately.
• Reading: examining professional texts to improve comprehension and efficiency

The interdisciplinary and practical content of the course will be modified to suit the needs and professional interests of the participants, who will be encouraged to discuss the specific problems they encounter in their work and English, and to share (where appropriate) professional materials in English for discussion.

Lernmethode

With a maximum of 8 students, constant engagement will be your instructor’s first priority in a student-centred environment.
