Want to Improve Your Business Writing Skills?


Do you ever receive an email from a co-worker that is laden with grammatical or spelling errors?  How does your perception of that person change?  Do you hesitate doing business with a company when you see misspellings in their advertisements or brochures?  Do you ever cringe when you see errors on a company's web site?  Now the biggest question is....how confident are you that others aren't feeling the same way about YOUR written words?

Emails and official company collateral can say a lot more about us than we even realize.  There are some subtle messages that speak louder than our written words. Do you know what they are?

If you're a manager or supervisor at your company, are you confident that your co-workers are representing your company well in their correspondence with business partners or potential clients?  Most of us weren't English majors in college and could use a little refresher on our skills.
 

We have a terrific course that can help your company or department better communicate in writing.  The Business Writing course offered by Workplace ESL Solutions includes the following topics:
  1. Grammar can be fun!
  2. Sentence Structure can be even more fun!
  3. Punctuation - dash, hyphen, and quotation marks, oh my!
  4. Common Mistakes in Word Choice: Witch won should eye choose?
  5. Business Documents: Reports, Proposals, Resumes, Cover Letters
  6. E-mail do's and don'ts
  7. Proofreading tips

Workplace ESL is getting even more social!


Learning a foreign language is a very social enterprise.  It involves the desire to communicate with others, and then lots and lots of practice!  Our classes are VERY interactive because you just can't learn a language effectively out of a text book.  Each class is filled with games, contests, discussions, role-plays, songs, and all kinds of fun activities to keep the students SPEAKING their new language!

I love that our theme is "Making Success the Common Language."  Our goal is to get students speaking and communicating fast!

Workplace ESL Solutions is now even more social because you can find us everywhere online!

We'd love for you to LIKE us on Facebook!   https://www.facebook.com/WorkplaceESL 


If you work in a hotel, you know how crucial it is to be able to communicate with customers, vendors, and staff.  Workplace ESL offers language courses in Spanish and English.  We've also created a fun new LinkedIn group to discuss the  challenges that are unique to the hotel industry.  We'd love to have you join in on the discussion at:    http://www.linkedin.com/groups/HotelESL-4397121?trk=myg_ugrp_ovr
