“What makes a good online training course?"
Other online training courses rely on ineffective teaching methods because it saves money. You see, every single class learns from the same pre-recorded videos. Which is great for those companies, but not for the students paying for the course. Not only are those videos boring, but they leave students without guidance or clarification. Effectively leaving many to drop the course well before completion. Here’s how we do things differently:
- Live-streamed online learning: We literally bring the classroom to you, with our face-to-face webinar instruction. Thus allowing students to ask direct questions, their expert instructors, and get personalized feedback in the moment.
- Practical role-play: Hands-on learning in a remote environment will involve re-enacting real scenarios like school meetings, medical consultations and immigration hearings.
- Industry specialized coaching: We give you the opportunity to work directly with with native speaking professionals, in order to sharpen terminology, memory skills and note-taking techniques
- Cultural competence: When you learn with us, you develop professional credibility with ethics trainings along while also taking cultural differences into account with interpreting work.
