We take your communications to the next level
Elite Coaching – High-Impact Business Communication Training
Successful businesses have a lot in common with good communications. One, you can always tell when they’re working. And, two, you can’t have the first without the second.Clear, business-appropriate communication is first about understanding. When you’re better understood, work is done better, faster and more safely. That forward momentum builds, and the spiral continues … up, up, up.
There’s never a down side to improving your communication skills, whatever your level and ability. Productivity and collaboration improve when we communicate well. Doing it together in the same language cements the deal. People hear and listen better when you speak their language. That builds trust and relationships that endure.
At Language Advantage, your success is our business. We understand the challenges of learning a new language—and that the process is different for everyone. To see yourself grow and improve is the best encouragement to keep learning. That’s what we want for you.
Offered now in English and French only, we focus on concise, precise language; public speaking techniques; and strengthening presentation skills. There are programs for intermediate, advanced, and English and French-as-a-first-language professionals. To begin, we evaluate your writing or oral skills. Then, we design a unique training plan that emphasizes the areas you want to focus on—reports, email, presentations, meetings, or other interactions. Topics and exercises deal with real-life and business scenarios and examples, so you can begin putting what you learn into practice right away.
You’ll learn tricks and tips for making your reports and papers clear and more focused. We’ll cover elements of style and how to adapt your language to different business purposes and audiences.
Word choice should be as much about the listener as the speaker. Topics covered will be written vs. spoken styles, active listening, negotiation, winning support for your ideas, and more.
Strong writing and speaking skills come together to create effective presentations. Learn how to organize your material, use words and tone to evoke emotion, read audiences and their engagement, and modulate your voice for emphasis and mood.
To be sure you’re getting results, we follow up regularly. The quality of our instruction allows us to adapt to your progress or changing needs. Our instructors are experienced, patient teachers. They often offer flexible and creative solutions to pedagogical issues, too.
This program will benefit intermediate and advanced English and French learners and English and French-as-a-first-language professionals. Participants must be comfortable reading, writing and speaking English and French at a functional level—well enough to work in the language.
Elite Coaching is designed to enhance your communication skills, specifically as they apply to business. The program uses materials and examples from our own clients’ experiences. Always, we adapt content to align with your specific goals and the feedback we receive from our experienced coaches. You’ll have the warm and enthusiastic team at Language Advantage to support and guide you through the entire learning process. We know how to recognize proficiency and accelerate the program for advanced business-English and French students.

“Being better able to speak and read Spanish is a great benefit for me, especially when it comes to socializing and communicating with business associates and strengthening our relationships. Latin Americans are very warm and social. Making the decision to start to improve my Spanish speaking and reading abilities has definitely been beneficial in building global business relationships.”
“I wish to thank the whole team for your support over the years. You have a knack for making complex concepts easy to understand. I wish to give special thanks to Joe for all the interesting discussions, the updates on the news (he is more informed than I will ever be). The classes were interesting and enjoyable, giving me the desire to learn which in turn helped me to have more confidence in myself. You have marked my journey in a way that I will never forget, you were a true mentor.”
