English is an essential tool.
A Channel
course is a cost effective way to
maximise your skills
in the modern business world
Total Immersion
Living in the home of a
teacher, you practise English AT ALL TIMES, not just during lessons.
Our teachers are selected for their teaching ability, their
business background and wide interests.
You
set your own pace, making the maximum progress in the minimum period of
time. The course content is
tailor-made to meet your needs, not those of a group.
None of your time in England is wasted.
Course Options
– The right choice for you
Channel
offers complete flexibility. You
choose the hours, type of accommodation and dates to meet your needs.
One
or Two Teachers?
English for Business
Your
choice of course depends on two main factors – the level of intensity
and the degree of specialisation. Our
Business Formula offers a general business course with one teacher for
15, 20 or 25 hours of lessons.
Professional
Plus
If you need maximum
intensity to accelerate your progress, choose our Two
Teacher Formula on a 25 or 30 hour Professional Course.
This offers you the services of your host teacher in the morning
and a second teacher who
visits the home in the afternoons to help you with your more specialised
business needs.
This option is UNIQUE to Channel and
offers the very best in Home Tuition.
