Participant voices
All participants found the training useful and valued the interactive learning experience, relevant real-world applications and British Council’s knowledgeable trainers.

‘Thanks to English Online, I’ve gained the confidence to present my academic research at an international conference. Speaking fluently about complex topics in a language that’s not my own was a challenge I couldn’t have achieved without this programme.’
Diana, a course participant

‘The interaction with teachers and students from around the world is incredibly enriching. Learning to understand diverse accents and sharing ideas with people from countries like Ukraine, Japan and Brazil has been a cultural and linguistic eye-opener.’
