The course provides a good balance between grammar and conversation and, during the latter, care is taken that vocabulary for every day use as well as specialised business vocabulary receives sufficient attention - what's more, conversations are always interesting and lively, giving one the impression of having a conversation with a friend rather than of being in class."

"I really enjoyed the entire programme that my Communicaid trainer took me through.  It was incredibly insightful and gave me such a wonderful range of information I had not even considered necessary.  Now that I am in the US utilising my learning it has been fundamental in keeping my confidence high and my dealings with others to a very good standard.  Fabulous program and greatly appreciated.  I would highly recommend it to others."
