One-to-one General/Business

English Course in Colchester

It's no problem if you need to take English lessons specifically for personal use or to help with your career - our trainers mould the lesson plan to your precise needs.

General English courses will cover Survival English, allowing you to be comfortable during short visits to the country; polite conversation, practicable vocabulary and a strong grammatical foundation. A Business course in English will generally cover basic business etiquette in that language, and at a higher level, reading and writing in English.


The exact syllabus is not determined simply in terms of 'General' or 'Business' - the course is tailor-made to your needs. If, as a Business student, you need extra focus on telephone or email communication, or vocabulary from a specific field of business, you only need mention this to your tutor. Likewise, a General course can include specific elements that are integral to your needs, for example if you need vocabulary specific to buying property overseas.


Our Business courses cater to a range of requirements. Many of our clients work for foreign governments and educational institutions, corporations with branches abroad, as well as those who buy and sell around the world. Clients of our General English courses include people moving abroad, those entering a English family through marriage, those studying for a English exam, as well as those who are simply passionate about English language and culture.

Info about Colchester


With a population of just over 100,000, Colchester lays claim to be the oldest recorded town in Britain, as mention of the place has been found in Roman documents dating back to 77AD. This gives the town an extraordinary cultural heritage with deep historical value.

Colchester also enjoys a rich and varied migrant population, boasting the highest percentage of non-British residents in the county, mainly thanks to overseas students attending Essex University. This makes it the best place to pick up a second language in Essex, with plenty of cultures represented in the diverse mix of ethnicities around the town.


Info about English


What with its irregular rules of spelling, grammar and pronunciation, learning English can represent a huge challenge on the part of a non-native speaker. But with a fully qualified native speaking English teacher from Language Trainers, the challenge is halved. Our tutors will supply all study materials and come to meet you at your home or place of work at a time convenient to you. Groups as well as individuals can be catered for, and the course can be amended so you are learning what you need to learn rather than simply a broad lingual overview.

Happy Hallowe'en!
