Effective Socializing is a practical, video-based course designed for professional people who need to use English in social situations, within and beyond the work environment. It present learners with the communication and language skills needed to operate effectively in a variety of common social contexts, and helps them to develop these skills in meaningful and realistic ways.
Effective Socializing focuses on key strategies for effective social interaction such as making small talk, developing conversation, and inclusive behaviour, as well as more conventional functions like welcoming and entertaining guests, invitations, offers, and requests. It helps learners extend their knowledge of useful language for performing these skills, and offers authentic practice tasks which draw on their own ideas and experience.
