Thank you very much. This course was probably one of the most entertaining (among the other English courses) one I have ever had. I have some difficulties with weekly meetings so that's why I choose your online training. I try to incorporate the mentioned things into practice. :)

The content was great. Really appreciate a few more listening exercises. Being a non native english speaker, often times I find it difficult to follow the pace of native english speakers ( not everyone's though).

Yes, this course is up to the mark with new learner and having sufficient knowledge to deliver the message to the team who are at some distance.

This course touched on the many aspects of the internal communications within a company so it was very helpful. The instructor was very clear and engaging. I would, however, suggest a revision of the written resources to get rid of the typos/empty pages and, perhaps, include some context instead of just listing sentence examples.

The content is really good and still current. My only observations are these: 1. I don't know if it's only my perception, but your voice sounds shaky like you're nervous throughout the entire course, which made me a bit anxious. 2. Also about the way of talking, I changed the speed of the course to 1.25x which felt more natural for this type of studies.

Thank you so much for the class, but please can you speak a little slowly, since English is not my first language was getting hard to pick the words.

Are you seriously teaching and testing me on starting an email with a Hi, and Hello and ending it with a KR, BR or Thanks. This is common sense and courtesy one should know by the age of five. This is what your equity and inclusivity based on everything but merit leads to - the need of such courses to balance the obvious idiocy. Kind Regards and KYS OXOXOXD What-A-Joke
