Pronunciation
"The class has really helped me to improve my
pronunciation. For me the most valuable part of the class is the increased awareness of correct pronunciation. In the past I was
able to realize 'this doesn't sound right,' but I didn't know why or how to make it better."
|
"I can now correctly pronounce some commonly used words that I have been pronouncing
in the wrong way for a long time. I can speak English with more confidence now."
|
"It was sometimes very frustrating when my colleagues had difficulty in
understanding what I said, especially in meetings. Even though I tried very hard to express myself, my pronunciation just
confused people. After taking this class, I understand how important the stress is in spoken English."

Writing
"I spend less time editing my email because I know
exactly where to look for problems."
|
"Overall, I have learned how to write more effectively at work. From time to time,
my coworkers got confused by my email because I did not use a correct verb tense or the proper tone. Then I had to write more
emails to clarify it. I learned many helpful writing techniques in the class
."

Presentation Skills
"This course really improved my skills for
delivering a presentation and smoothly handling the Q & A session. My next presentation to upper management ended with
applause."
|
"Thank you very much for your help! I really appreciated your effort and time in analyzing my
presentation. Your class is one of the most valuable classes I've taken at IBM. "
