Through the years, we have served many corporate clients ranging from financial institutions to energy companies; from fashion to pharma. Most of our clients are in the Randstad, but we sometime serve online clients from countries as far away as Saudi Arabia and Japan.

The English Center approach follows Brenda’s values and training in psychology and education – that means creating learning experiences that are welcoming & supportive, active, and highly personalized.

Our team of carefully selected native-speaker trainers from the UK, the US, Ireland and Australia helps individuals and corporations achieve their English goals. We know that native-speaker training is especially important for our Dutch clients, who are often already at an intermediate to advanced level of business English and need to get the nuanced, advanced training that only a native speaker can provide.

I wanted to improve my English. My teacher was a very calm person. She understood me very well, which meant we discussed many different topics every time. Because of that, it was engaging every time. She really motivated me to work on it outside of class. I enjoyed every lesson.

Wonderful coach

Taylor is a wonderful coach with a holistic approach to her teaching methodology that makes each class unique and engaging.
She is also very practical in her choice of exercises, ensuring that lessons are well complemented by real-world, day-to-day application. This in no way detracts from her professionalism — she is highly knowledgeable and demonstrates a commendable ability to contextualise concepts effectively.
Overall, it has been an excellent experience and I would highly recommend Taylor to anyone looking to develop their business English skills.

Exactly what I needed as a business owner working internationally

I took a course at The English Center in my capacity as a business owner who spends a lot of time in international meetings. Often online, with participants joining from very different cultural and linguistic backgrounds. It has made a real difference in how I show up professionally.

The course helped me feel at ease in the full range of roles I take on: leading a meeting, facilitating a conversation between others, or simply being one of several voices in the discussion. That last part mattered more than I had expected. Being able to follow, respond to, and engage naturally with participants whose accents and ways of speaking are all different from one another has made me noticeably more present and effective in those settings.

The teaching is thoughtful, practical, and clearly grounded in the realities of international business communication. A warm recommendation to anyone in a similar position.

Thank you so much for this thoughtful review. It’s been a pleasure working with you.

You describe something many international professionals experience: not just speaking English, but managing different accents, communication styles, and meeting dynamics in real time. We’re very happy to hear the training has helped you feel more confident and effective in those situations.

We especially appreciate your comments about participating naturally in international discussions. That’s such an important professional communication skill today.

Thank you again for your warm recommendation and for taking the time to share your experience.

Experiencing the English Center

The organization: Well structured advise based on my needs, smooth onboarding, flexibility in course set-up (E.g. Preferred location, frequency). Clear messaging.
The teachers: Tina and Marijke are two very experienced teachers. They are good listeners and very creative in incorporating your needs and personal or business context in their lessons. They are friendly, fun and professional.

The right place to improve your English accent

I wanted to improve my American accent. I didn't think I would find a training institute that would take this request seriously. But the English Center does. I had a great teacher. He was always well-prepared and made a real effort to find the right podcast, video or text for me to practice my accent. I learned something new during each session.
