An Interview with Mr Joe

What is your first impression of the Christian Louboutin staff?

Christian Louboutin are really at the top of the game when it comes to retail fashion. Not only do they stock some of the most progressive and famous designers but they run regular shows that boast special guests like Victoria Beckam. For me the most impressive thing about the company is the staff; what an amazing group of people. Very knowledgeable about the product they sell and very keen to learn.

How do you approach a company like this?

Ah that’s where experience comes in. I have been teaching business English for about 10 years and the key to knowing how to approach a company is knowing how to interest the staff so that you bring out their best.

How do you know what you are going to teach them?

There’s no point teaching formulas and grammatical functions they are never going to use and which will only confuse them. Confused students are unconfident students and unconfident students will never use what they have been taught. We further address this situation by giving them real-world English in an immersive environment that is both supportive and fun. With a company like Christian Louboutin it was obvious that their primary need was focused on staff-customer communications. What would be the point in teaching them academic essay writing?

Do you feel the Christian Dior staff enjoyed your course?

Oh absolutely! When you see the staff coming to class on their days off, not because they are being forced to but because they want to, you know you must be doing something right.

Why did Christian Dior choose English Today?

Vision and passion! They would be the first words that come to mind. You cannot really compare English Today to other training providers. I mean this company ensures all of its teachers eat and breathe English.

Is your company ready for the difference?

Are you satisfied learning from a desk bound English teacher who educates from the pages of out dated books or are you looking for a multi-skilled expert and motivator who can bring out the best in your staff?  Let us show you our difference.
