I really enjoyed having English lessons with Uplift. He started by asking me what I was interested in, and each course was an opportunity to debate about different topics. The course with my teacher Adam has really helped me in developing contacts in the world of English.

"Adam was my teacher for several years. The classes were initially face-to-face and during the confinement they became online. In both cases the result was very good. Adam has great educational skills; the classes were very enjoyable and fun thanks to the work environment he created. You learned without realising it. Totally recommended".

Why Business English?

Is English the universal language for business? The simple answer is yes.

According to the latest data published by Ethnologue, English is the most spoken language worldwide with 1.35 billion people speaking it, either natively or as a second language. Transcending into the business world, it has become the medium of communication for many companies across the globe. English is now essential in the workplace.

Skills can include English letter writing, delivering presentations, negotiating or plain small-talk.

Such skills are already considered to be a prerequisite of modern-day international cooperation, and an important key for global business.
