TESTImonials

"I was preparing for the IELTS exam and didn't know why my score had stopped improving. Ferdia explained exactly where I was losing marks and gave me practical strategies that I could apply immediately. The lessons were structured, motivating, and tailored to my weaknesses. I reached my target band score and finally felt confident on exam day.

I would recommend the programme to anyone serious about improving their English."

Priya, 26

India

“I started learning English in my late twenties, after a world trip during which I realized how important it is to master the language in order to connect with people from all over the world.

My level really took off after meeting Ferdia. He not only helped me practise and prepare for the Cambridge Advanced Exam through mock exams and other materials, but he also took the time to explain how native English speakers think and use the language. That insight has been truly invaluable to me.

I highly recommend taking classes with Ferdia. He has a unique way of teaching, whether online or in person. You won’t just achieve high scores, you’ll also grow as a person.”

Arthur, 32

“I started learning English in my late twenties, and travelling made me realise how much my English was holding me back. Working with Ferdia completely changed my confidence. My level improved dramatically after working with Ferdia. The lessons were personalised, practical, and focused on exactly what I needed. His guidance gave me the confidence to communicate naturally in English, both while travelling and in everyday life.

His guidance gave me the confidence to communicate naturally in English, both while travelling and in everyday life. I finally stopped worrying about making mistakes and started enjoying conversations.”

Speak with more confidence at work.

Do you know English, but sometimes find it difficult to express yourself clearly and confidently in professional situations?

You might know what you want to say, but struggle to find the right words in a meeting. You may worry about sounding too direct, too informal or simply not natural enough. Perhaps presentations, interviews, phone calls or conversations with international colleagues still make you nervous.

  • Need English for meetings, presentations or interviews

  • Sometimes struggle to find the right words quickly

  • Want to communicate more confidently without constantly worrying about mistakes

Practical English. Real professional situations.

This isn't a course built around memorising long lists of “business vocabulary.”

The focus is on learning how to communicate effectively.

You'll practise realistic situations and learn how experienced English speakers adapt their language depending on the situation—whether you're contributing to a meeting, explaining a problem, disagreeing politely or presenting an idea.

Live online small-group classes

Small groups mean you'll have plenty of opportunities to participate, practise and receive individual feedback.

You'll also learn from communicating with other professionals and English learners from different backgrounds.

Not sure if this course is right for you?

Before joining, you can book a free 40-minute diagnostic with Exam Target Academy.

We'll discuss your current English, the situations where you need English professionally, the difficulties you're experiencing and what you want to achieve.

You'll then have a clearer idea of what you need to work on and whether the Business English & Professional Communication course is the right fit.

B1+ General English Programme
€99.00

Build the confidence to use your English in real life.

Do you already speak English, but feel like you've reached a point where making further progress is difficult?

Perhaps you understand much more than you can comfortably say. You know the grammar, but still make mistakes when speaking. Or you find yourself searching for words, using the same vocabulary again and again, or worrying too much about whether your English is correct.

This course is designed to help you move beyond that stage.

The B1+ General English Programme is a structured, live online course for adults who already have a good foundation in English and want to become more fluent, accurate and confident communicators.

Course Details

🎯 Level: B1+ / Intermediate+
💻 Format: Live online, small-group classes
📅 Classes: Twice per week
⏱️ Duration: 60 minutes per class
🗓️ Days: Mondays and Wednesdays
🕐 Time: 7-8pm – Ireland time
💶 Price: €99 per month

What will you work on?

This isn't just a conversation club.

Each class combines practical communication with structured language development, helping you improve the English you actually need in everyday life.

You'll work on:

Speaking – communicate more confidently and spontaneously
Vocabulary – develop a wider range of useful, natural expressions
Grammar – improve accuracy and correct recurring mistakes
Pronunciation – speak more clearly and naturally
Listening – become more comfortable understanding spoken English
Fluency – reduce hesitation and express your ideas more easily
Real-world English – practise language for social, everyday and professional situations

You'll have plenty of opportunities to actually use English, receive corrections and put new language into practice.

Who is this course for?

This programme could be right for you if you:

  • Can already have conversations in English but want to communicate more naturally

  • Understand more English than you feel able to speak

  • Sometimes struggle to find the words you need

  • Keep making grammar mistakes even though you've studied the rules before

  • Want to expand beyond basic vocabulary and sentence structures

  • Lack confidence when speaking with other people

  • Feel like your English has stopped progressing

  • Want to work towards a stronger B2 level

Why two classes per week?

Improving your English requires more than an occasional lesson.

With two live 60-minute classes every week, you'll have regular opportunities to speak, practise new language, receive feedback and continue building on what you've learned.

The aim is not simply to know more English.

It's to become better at using it.

Small-group learning

You'll learn alongside other students at a similar level in a supportive live environment.

Group classes give you the opportunity to hear different speakers, participate in real conversations, exchange ideas and become more comfortable communicating spontaneously — while still receiving guidance and correction from your teacher.

Joining from outside Ireland?

You're very welcome.

Classes are completely online, so you can join from anywhere in the world.

Please check the class time in your local time zone before enrolling. All times displayed are Irish time.
