Business Toolbox
Im Berufsalltag Englisch sprechen – das müssen nicht nur Mitarbeiter internationaler Firmen. Dieser Ratgeber erklärt: Wie verfasst man E-Mails an Kollegen oder Geschäftspartner, und wie reagiert man am Telefon richtig? Welche Formulierungen und Redewendungen helfen in Meetings? Wie überbrückt man eine Gesprächspause, wenn man mal nicht weiter weiß, und wie kann man sich rückversichern, ob man richtig verstanden hat? Für alle, die Business English im Beruf benötigen und ihr Wissen schnell und praxisnah auffrischen wollen.

HOW WE WORK
Let’s talk about how we can best support you. Improve your writing in a number of ways:
COURSES & WORKSHOPS
We’re happy to run workshops at your office for you and your team or at our place in Cologne.
Writing for marketing purposes and working at a German university or institute of higher education? Come along to one of our open workshops offered by the DAAD. See here for our next DAAD workshop.
For academic writing we offer workshops through your university, research institute or through the DAAD.
Contact us today to arrange a writing workshop.
Interested in a writing or presentation skills workshop? Contact Write-English.
COACHING
If you prefer to work on a one-to-one basis – and this often makes sense when writing – then why not sign up for a half day of writing coaching. We’ll read your text in advance, ask some background questions and then prepare a coaching session for you. We meet either at your workplace or at our office in Cologne.
Presentation coming up? Take the opportunity to come up with a good concept and practice your delivery.
If this sounds like something you need then contact us.
TEXT CORRECTION & EDITING
Send us your text and you’ll get more than just a corrected version of it. Because lots of you want to learn along the way, we explain why we’ve made a change and how you can generally improve your writing. You’ll also get a list of helpful resources you can use to support your writing projects and of course we’re always happy to answer your questions by phone, email or in person You’ll receive a document highlighted with changes, suggestions and possibly some questions. We ask you to make any necessary changes and return the text to us for at least one more read through.
Need some help with your text? Contact us now.
STYLE GUIDES
Most organisations have several writers – so how can you sound like one voice, one brand? If you need to establish some guidelines for your written material then let us help you develop a simple style guide. This will serve as a useful guide for all your writers. We’ll offer workshops for your writing team and ensure you sound like one voice.
