Intensive English Course Online

Long-term courses are great.

But let’s look at what an intensive English course online can do for you.

This is without a doubt the quickest way to get fluent in language.

How long have you been telling yourself you really “need to improve your English”?

Web-based Intensive English course

Perhaps you don’t have enough time to physically go to a class?

Or you travel a lot?

If traditional classes didn’t get the result you hoped for, a web-based intensive English course might be an interesting option.

So are intensive language courses any good?

In our experience, they’re highly efficient.

If you’re prepared to dedicate a semi high number of hours, your English level improves dramatically.

It’s particularly effective to stop you feeling embarrassed when you really need to speak English.

ADVANTAGES OF AN INTENSIVE ENGLISH COURSE

What are the advantages of a web-based intensive course?

At Nativos we have 22 years of experience in teaching business classes. These are the clear advantages we see with an intensive course.

1. Fluency

Learning English an hour here and there isn’t enough. An intensive course will get you to speak with fluency at your workplace. English fluency classes will get you to speak up at meetings!

Here’s some Business English vocabulary if you can’t wait to get started.

2. Confidence

Similar to fluency, an intensive course builds up your self-confidence. We’ll guide you to speak English with authority. Can’t wait? Here are 7 tips to speak confident English.

3. Pronunciation

We don’t obsess over accents. You can be a great business professional and speak with a foreign accent. An intensive course does tend to bring improvements to your pronunciation. We can also focus more on this area if it’s important to you. 9 tips to improve here.

4. Speed

There is no guarantee that you’ll speak English like a native just because you do a week or two of language classes. However, you’ll speed up your learning curve with an immersion course. It’s intense and effective.

5. Cheaper

Our online English classes are cheaper than our in-company, or face-to-face classes. You’ll also save time and money as you don’t need to travel. Connect from the beach hehe.

6. Level up

Don’t expect to magically go from let’s say a B2 level to a C1. But do expect your English to level up during the course. Particularly if you follow our (voluntary!) additional exercises during your intensive course.

But hey, we totally get that homework isn’t for everybody.

7. Grammar

As you refresh and build on your grammar skills, you’ll notice how your Business English improves. Many professionals prioritise fluency over perfecting their grammar. We do our best to sneak in some fun grammar angles as it’s so important to truly level up.

8. Career

A higher level of English means you can finally speak with clients or co-workers and focus on the content. Not your English. Boosting your language skills has a positive impact on your job performance. And hey, on your future career.

Great teachers, great method! Thank you for your professionalism.

Why choose Nativos?

How do we design our intensive courses?

We design the course with you!

It’s all about your goal.

Tell us what you’d like to achieve. We will design the content around this to make sure you reach your target.

We never offer the same courses. We always adapt.

Our methodology?

We use real-life business examples:

We talk about your industry
We use your job profession as a basis
We (almost) always find a way to make the class fun 🙂
We are great at getting people to SPEAK

As the course progresses, your teacher understands more about how you best learn. And what makes you talk more in class.

We constantly adapt to make sure you get the most out of each hour.

Let's look at some examples!

How does it work?

1. Interview

One of our native teachers will arrange an online meeting.

Our objective? To listen to your needs, understand what you want to achieve, and your ideal timetable.

We’ll also do a 15-minute oral level test so we can learn about your English level.

2. Level test

Step two is an online written English test. It only takes 10 minutes.

This will allow us to determine your level of English. We’ll know the aspects of grammar, spelling, vocabulary, oral and written expression, etc. that you need to improve.

3. Training plan

After analysing your level test, we’ll design your online intensive course.

The plan is based on the number of hours you want, and the frequency.

It’s ideal for companies, executives and professionals.

4. Meet your native teacher

Don’t be shy! You’ll get to know each other in no time.

It might be the teacher who did your test, or another depending on availability.

We always guarantee a qualified native teacher with experience in online English classes.

5. Follow-up

After class, your teacher sends a list of the words or topics you had problems with.

And homework… if you’re up for it 🙂

We’ll regularly inform you of the progress made. We’ll send relevant materials to improve the things you need to work harder at.

I really like the English classes, they are very interactive. I take classes with Mel Brennan and she is fantastic.
In class we all have time to talk and practice, and Mel constantly tries to correct, and keeps you from feeling insecure when speaking it.

What do you need for online intensive classes?

You don’t need to be a technology expert to sign up for our intensive courses.

We make it as easy as possible for you to connect.

You can use any equipment you have at work or at home.

This is what you need:

A laptop or desktop computer with a camera and microphone. You can also do the classes with a tablet or a mobile phone. But keep in mind that it is more comfortable to use a large screen.

A video conferencing application. We can do the English classes using any free or paid video conferencing tool.

An Internet connection. We recommend connecting to the Internet using a cable or making sure you have good Wi-Fi coverage. This way we guarantee the highest image and sound quality throughout the session.

It’s also highly recommended that you’re alone in the room during the classes, without background noise or distractions.

Also make sure to put your mobile phone on silence.

Same goes for Slack and any other communication platform.
