According to the survey conducted by Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch, the target group's interest in a private English course or coaching is due to the following reasons: 67% would like to match the "English language course" offer with their own language learning needs. 11% have noticed through reading job advertisements that English is required. 22%, on the other hand, justify their interest in a recommendation. One free text response was also "I need this".

There are a large number of English courses, as well as specialized English courses. Business English, for example, but also company courses that are tailored to the individual needs of each company can be booked at many schools throughout Switzerland. These types of English courses can have very different orientations and focus primarily on the wishes of the individual company.

Various English courses are offered at language schools. These are usually standard courses and intensive courses, which differ mainly in the workload and the depth of the individual subject areas. In addition to standard and intensive courses, many language schools also offer private courses and a combination of private courses and standard or intensive courses in order to achieve the best possible results. There are also business courses that train you specifically in communicating with business partners and customers, whether by telephone, in meetings, in business letters or reports, and all in English.

Almost all language schools offer different language courses, which vary according to intensity, level, specialty, objective and time. Many courses take place at off-peak times, which allows you, as a working person, to attend an English training course after work. For those who have long working hours and are unable to attend an English course during the week, some language schools also offer Saturday courses. Business English courses or courses for business English are usually held in the evenings, in some cases also on Saturdays. For working people who have little time and still want to learn English, private lessons can also be the ideal solution, where you make all the arrangements and set the times.

Another interesting option is online language courses, which offer you a great deal of flexibility and can be adapted to suit your pace of life. Some have fixed times, similar to conventional English courses where you take part in lessons via webcam. Other online schools, on the other hand, allow you to set your own attendance times, either for the duration of the entire course or for each individual lesson. This method is particularly suitable for people who work shifts and do not have the same day and time off every week. If something comes up, you can usually cancel up to 24 hours in advance and postpone the English training course. Often you can not only learn English from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., but also have the opportunity to get in touch with an English teacher and learn at night. This is particularly possible at schools that work with teachers who are based in other countries or on other continents and have different working hours due to the time difference. Information on this can be obtained from the individual schools.

Of course, there are not only standard or intensive courses that you can attend during language travel in London, but also business English courses. Almost all language schools also offer these, but there are also special business schools that specialize exclusively in teaching business English to very different target groups. You will find language courses that offer general business English as well as courses that teach lawyers, doctors, pharmaceutical representatives, secretaries, IT specialists or other professional groups specific terms, abbreviations and definitions that they need for their day-to-day work. However, it is usually assumed that participants already have a basic knowledge of English, usually at level B1 or even B2. If you do not have this level of English, you should consider a pre-course, either in England directly or at a language school here in Switzerland.
Business courses are also usually aimed at people over the age of 20, usually even from the age of 25. However, you should always check the minimum age with the language school in question, as this can vary considerably. Business language courses also offer you a more upscale ambience than standard programs, which can be noticeable in the rooms, but above all in the accommodation. This is usually a little more exclusive than usual and there are usually no small children in the household.

You can learn English in many places, but they are certainly all equally suitable for you. For example, there are language schools that specialize mainly in business clients and companies, while others do not offer any corporate seminars for learning English. The focus of the schools is therefore an important point when making your choice.

The first decisive factor for private individuals is certainly the location of the language school in Switzerland. There are a whole range of cities throughout Switzerland where you can learn English. You can learn English anywhere - from Aarau to Lucerne, St. Gallen and Zurich. Choose a location for your English course that is in your region and remember that you will probably have to travel this distance once a week. Find out whether you can travel by public transport or, if you prefer to travel by car, whether there are parking facilities nearby.

In addition to the location, the qualifications and experience of the teachers are of course particularly important when learning English and choosing the right language school. The English language trainer should be a native speaker or at least have a C2 level. What experience does he or she have in teaching a foreign language and what training and further education does he or she have?

The equipment of the language school's classrooms can also be an important decision criterion when learning English. You will certainly learn English better in well-ventilated, bright rooms with comfortable chairs and well-kept furniture than in a small, dark cellar. You should therefore enquire about the infrastructure and equipment of the classrooms at the individual schools in advance. Sometimes it is also worth visiting the school in person to get a personal impression of the language school. After all, you will be spending a few afternoons or evenings there in an English course to learn English.
