In the second part of the course, participants will put their newly-gained knowledge into practice in a number of role-playing activities and case studies.

Veel geleerd tijdens de training Business English. Heel leuk om uren achter elkaar Engels te spreken en verbetersuggesties te krijgen. Ook het zakelijk vergaderen en presenteren heeft mij erg geholpen. Een aanrader!
Heb met plezier de advanced business English course gevolgd bij DNA languages. Gedurende 30 uur persoonlijk onderwijs zijn de met de tijd ingeslopen fouten op een prettige en vakkundige manier door een drietal docenten besproken en verbeterd. Deze cursus is zeker aan te bevelen.
Michelle was een hele vaardige trainer die met veel enthousiasme ons de training heeft gegeven! Ik ging met plezier naar mijn training Business English.
Mooie cursus. Veel praktische tips die dagelijks toe te passen zijn. Daarnaast was de hands-on feedback tijdens de lessen erg nuttig. De lerares was enthousiast en wist het lesmateriaal altijd richting onze branche te sturen wat de training erg praktisch maakte.
