Taking part in this course was a very valuable experience for me. The classes were extremely useful both linguistically and practically. I learned many expressions and structures that make it easier to lead and participate in meetings in English – from starting discussions and expressing opinions to summarizing decisions. The course helped me gain more confidence when communicating during business meetings and feel more comfortable in an international work environment. The materials were clear and well-organized, and the trainer explained everything in an accessible way. This training has definitely helped me improve my language skills, which are very important for my current position.
