There is a lot of pressure to perform well at work, the world is growing smaller, almost all business is international and we all have foreign connections.
We should speak good English in order to advance in our career, so we take English classes usually before we get to the office, in our lunch break or after work. Oh yes, and we are also supposed to have a life too!
Lets face it: it can be tedious and boring.
English Connections aims to combine the SHOULDS with the WANTS.
Essentially English Connections it is for professionals who already have some knowledge of English - from pre-intermediate level upwards.
This means you can communicate in English, you can write an email and talk business (more or less), but you either want to take your English skills to a higher level of fluency or need to make your speaking skills and vocab smoother and gain more confidence.
However, English Connections is also for foreigners who moved to Sao Paulo and want to build their social network and just hang out with other English speakers.
We believe that bringing these two groups together is a recipe for a very successful and exciting blend.
