You have a knowledge of English comparable to level B1+ or higher and would like to improve your professional communication skills. In this course, you will learn the technical language and terminology, specialising in architecture and construction. Following the textbook, you will learn technical vocabulary and grammar and practise pronunciation using construction-related texts. You will acquire the language skills for the respective planning and execution phases of a construction project, and also learn the differences to the German HOAI phases. We will also cover topics relating to urban planning, technical building equipment, sustainability and construction in existing buildings. Prepare yourself for international projects or work in English-speaking countries. The lecturer is an experienced architect, engineer and urban planner. He studied at the University of East London, is ARB registered and a Chartered Member of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). He has extensive language and specialist knowledge of Anglo-Saxon planning and construction, which he is happy to pass on to colleagues.

Collocations such as "pass an exam" or "fully aware" make your language sound natural because collocations are a natural combination of words that are closely related. By mastering collocations, you will be able to communicate your ideas more clearly as well as speak more fluently, because you remember words in phrases.

Service point, city tour, meeting: Was heißt das und wie wird es richtig ausgesprochen? Sie werden sehen, wie viel Englisch Sie eigentlich schon kennen! Machen Sie Ihre ersten Schritte im Englischen und gewinnen Sie mit Spaß und Unterstützung Selbstvertrauen für weitere Lernschritte.

This course is for anyone who wishes to (re-)activate their English speaking skills through discussion, conversation, and language games. You are invited to bring in your own ideas and topics if you wish.
