Learning a foreign language is an added advantage - for the student, professional and entrepreneur. At Language Labs, language and culture education is part of the core curriculum and is tied to program models that incorporate effective strategies and assessment procedures, reflect evolving standards and stimulate higher order thinking skills. Each language program employs various dynamic teaching tools, including interactions with native speakers, video clips, role-play and other animated methods.
In today's competitive global business market, companies are increasingly looking at cultural orientation and corporate wellness as part of their business strategy and approach. Bridging cultural gaps is now considered an "intangible" value addition to businesses and client servicing.

Program Delivery
You can choose between our state-of-the-art fully equipped language training halls or on-site training. The foreign language programs are delivered at a schedule that is suitable to the company, over a given and continuous period of time.
Material and Methodology
Participants will be given foundation material, hand-outs compiled from different books and the internet, domain-specific vocabulary lists and CDs to take home their learning. Aids such as songs, video clips and audio-visual presentations are also part of the interactive training methodology.
Information that we would need
The number of participants to be trained
We require a minimum of 10 participants and can accommodate a maximum of 20 participants for each program. For a larger group, the program can be delivered in batches.
The specific objectives of the training program
The objectives of every training program need to be clearly defined by the company-basic survival skills, telephonic conversations, interpretation of product lists and invoices, day-to-day interactions with clients or any other specific purposes. This will help us structure the program input appropriately and deliver the best output.
The timeframe allotted for the training program
The maximum period of time over which the training program can be conducted should be specified. Based on the training objectives and expected output, we will discuss the feasibility of the timeframe with you.
Regional particularities
In case of on-site assignments, details such as the region where the team will be placed or will have dealings with will be important to point out variations in the dialect and important cultural, economic and demographic information specific to the region.
Our content, the proposed duration and schedule of the program and the methodology to be used for delivery will depend on these factors. The more information we have the better results you can expect.
