English Foreign Language (EFL) Courses at the Knowledge Workshop
General English
This is a comprehensive course for foreign students who want to learn English, or who simply wish to improve their ability in the language. The course holistically trains the four linguistic skills (listening, speaking, reading, writing) as well as grammar, for use in everyday situations. We cater to all language levels, from beginner to advanced.
Business English
This is a multi-level course for foreign students. It is aimed at businesspeople and students of Business English. It is designed to improve fluency and confidence and will allow you to communicate in English, in a wide range of business situations.
TOEFL Preparation
TOEFL or Test of English as a Foreign Language is a standardised proficiency exam and an entrance requirement for thousands of English colleges and universities worldwide. We offer an intensive preparation course, which is of a highly academic nature. All candidates must therefore be at an upper-intermediate level of their language learning. Preparation is geared towards holistically training the four linguistic skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing) for academic purposes. The course also thoroughly familiarises you with the TOEFL test format and teaches test-taking strategies that will help with your success on exam day.
