Corporate English training for employees is an essential tool for companies in any industry. Whether your ESL workers (who speak English as a Second Language) hold blue or white collar positions, English training could be a real solution. Everyone deserves to understand and be understood. But if your employees don't have the communication skills required to do so, it is then it becomes your obligation to provide learning opportunities. But how do you make that choice when there's so many options? Here's a breakdown of each...
3 kinds of online corporate English training for employees:
1. "Standard" or self-taught online English training
Standard online English training is the kind you find with companies like Rosetta Stone, Babble etc. These courses teach English online, but they take the "one-size fits all" approach. It's pretty self explanatory, but you know what you're getting with these courses. Characterized by pre-recorded videos, these courses are generally cheaper because they are so impersonal. There is no instructor to whom questions can be asked. They are self-taught because it is up to the individual to analyze the subject and get it right the first time.
2. "Hybrid" or online English training for employees with LIVE instruction
Unlike the first kind, hybrid online English training comes with an actual teacher. It combines the convenience of remote learning with the advantages of traditional, classroom learning. This approach allows students - your employees - to ask questions and get answers. They are able to receive feedback in the moment, because classes meet online through a video conference webinar call. As far as remote English training is concerned, this method is second only to traditional classroom learning.
3. Online English training for employees lead by A.I
Artificial Intelligence (A.I) is becoming more popular in the world of online learning. And it isn't hard to see why: it is convenient and cheaper to produce for mass consumption. Students - your workers - learn from a robot, or an animated humanoid figure depending on the company you go with. Not only can this experience be distracting, but it can never be a human. It could malfunction easily mid-lesson, or not understand what is being asked. (How many times have you screamed at Siri because she misunderstood what you said? Probably at least once. Imagine how it would play out in a classroom!)
