Business English Courses at EES Chile




English, for all intents and purposes, is the language of the world. Even though more people speak Mandarin Chinese and Spanish as native languages, if all speakers around the world are considered, especially those who speak English as a second on third language, English will be at the top. Moreover, it is the most popular language in the two most powerful engines of the modern world – the United States of America and the European Union – and hence, the most important language for international business.

Therefore, it is obvious that executives of all levels need to be fluent in English to ensure business success. This is especially relevant today with business crossing geographical boundaries, where often, the bridge between different countries and disparate cultures is the English language. When there is a demand, there will obviously be a supply; hence, this demand for business English education has resulted in a surfeit of executive training firms. However, like men, not all training firms are equal.

What differentiates a premier executive training firm from the rest are its record and its staff. If the firm has a record of consistent successes in imparting business English education, and if its staff includes certified and experienced trainers, then it may be a wise choice to invest in its business English course offerings. Executive English Solutions (EES http://www.ees.cl/) is one such premier executive firm in Chile.

However, its course offerings are not restricted to one country alone. It has centers in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand as well. Backed by years of experience and staffed by instructors with CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults), TEFL (Teacher of English as a Foreign Language) and TESOL (Teacher of English to Speakers of Other Languages) certifications, EES is the ideal place to learn English for business.

Speaking the Language



You must have heard the expression, “speaking their language.” When teenagers complain that their parents do not understand them, they said the older generation does not “speak their language.” When factory union workers agitate against management, they are often reported to be “speaking in different languages.” Wouldn’t business be easier if you could always speak the language of the person you interact with? With expert corporate language training, you can.

So, what are the languages you should get trained on? Well, that entirely depends on your needs, especially the places where you do business and the people you do business with. For all practical purposes, English is the language of business, and hence, all executives should be proficient (if not fluent) in this language. Also, to add to that, if you are doing business in Chile or any place in South America, knowledge of Spanish is a must.

Learning a language for business involves much more than memorizing some common expressions, such as greetings or appreciative remarks. While it may take years to understand the subtle nuances of any language, with the proper language teaching guidance, enough can be learned in mere months to suffice for most business interactions.

When you speak the client’s language, both literally and figuratively, you not only forge a personal bond but also show that you care. In other words, learning a language is a demonstration of dedication. Also, it helps you in difficult situations like contract negotiations where inability to understand a language can give the opposing party the upper hand. Thus, expertise in languages can make you an expert in business.

Therefore, if you want to know where such expert English courses and Spanish courses are offered, you should certainly check out Executive English Solutions (ww.ees.cl). We are confident you won’t be disappointed.
