    Who is this course for?

    This course and exclusive materials provided were designed with digital communication professionals in mind.

    However, it will help any professional with an intermediate level of English (or higher) to present themselves and their work with greater language confidence.

    What will you learn?

    1. How language corpora studies and real English data reveal that your English knowledge is wider ranging than you think.
    2. How to use tools and adopt habits that target and fill any gaps in your English knowledge base for objective confidence.
    3. Why you don't need to worry about grammar when you speak if you're ready to get to know 100 words better and stay curious.
    4. How working with three characteristics of spoken English will improve understanding and help you speak English clearly, regardless of your first language accent.
    5. Actionable advice to help you bring enjoyment and purpose back into your English improvement practice. Unique and creative learning approaches that build practical language driven by your life, work, and interests in a few minutes a day.
    6. How a focus on your message will help you beat imposter syndrome and language anxiety when you speak.
    7. How to use three reusable visual language templates, designed to give you the precise messages and language your audience need to hear.
    8. How to implement language coaching approaches and tools to help you continuously see yourself as a legitimate English speaker and communicator.
    9. Presentation techniques that build trust and connection with your audience in any language.
    10. Preparation habits to give you extra calm and clarity before, during, and after you've spoken.

    How will you learn?

    Each of the video-based learning modules help you to complete a learning aim and get the most from the learning resources provided in each section.

    All the materials, documents and guidance you need to learn, take action, and reflect are provided in the self-contained sections. Each section builds on the last.

    At every stage of the asynchronous course you can ask questions, submit language work and your coaching exercises for instructor review to get the most from a 1-1 live coaching session at the end of the course.
