Its English Language learning, but not as you know it. Check out EF Corporate Solutions e-book "Flipped English Learning" to learn how businesses are getting strategic about English.

1. Flipped
English Learning
How businesses are getting
strategic about English and turning
old-school learning on its head.

2. Introduction
When English
really matters
Results
Time
As almost every market becomes a global market,
English language skills have become critically
important to businesses.
But traditional ways of learning just don’t deliver
the results that businesses need. Which makes for
a serious business problem – and a huge amount
of wasted time and money on methods that just
don’t work.
Here’s the problem: for companies who really
need to accelerate the English skills of their most
important people – executives, technical
professionals, customer-facing staff – traditional
learning delivers poor returns.
This is about a better way.
It’s called Flipped Learning and it’s transforming
education across all subjects and at every level,
from school classrooms to highly intensive
professional programs.
Now Flipped Learning is coming to English
language training for businesses and it’s making
a big impact.

3. Flipped
English Learning
Flipped English Learning is a form of blended
learning in which:
Students learn and try new concepts online,
in their own time. Including vocabulary, grammar,
phrases, and topics all taught via online interactive
tools, videos and modules on any device
they choose.
Students use the classroom to practice and apply
what they learned. Making the most of the limited
time with teachers and fellow learners.
Flipped English Learning coordinates out-of-class
and in-class activities in a way that plays to the
strengths of each:
Teachers focus on what they do brilliantly:
structured encouragement and conversation
practice to ensure students really understand what
they’ve learned.
Students learn in their own time and at their
own pace, speeding through material they
understand and taking more time on tougher areas.
It’s a simple idea that makes
a dramatic impact on progress
(which, after all, is what
businesses are paying for).

4. Five reasons to
flip your English
Learning
If you’re still putting your
employees and executives
through outdated English
learning programs, there
are five reasons to re-think
your approach…

5. One
Flipped English
Learning makes the
best use of teacher
time and class time.
Traditional classroom learning is inefficient.
Flipped English Learning lets teachers
focus where they’re most needed.
On the skills students struggle with.
On the students who most need help.
Flipped classrooms free teacher time for
hands-on work.
Learners ‘learn by doing’ and asking
questions.
Your people help each other, which
benefits both the advanced and the less
advanced learners.
In short, Flipped English Learning turns
teachers from lecturers into coaches.

6. Two
It makes the
best use of each
learner’s time.
Online self-study is a critical part of any Flipped
English Learning program because it lets each
learner focus on the skills that most need attention.
They can skim through the topics they’ve mastered.
And concentrate on tougher skills they’re
struggling with.
And they do it whenever they like – night or day,
at home or on the road – working it around their
busy schedules.
They can then practice what they learned with
the teacher during lessons.
This ‘always on’ approach dramatically
accelerates progress.

7. Three
It raises the
engagement
and motivation
of every learner.
More dedicated, better-structured teacher time
– applied where it’s really needed – means
students remain on-track, engaged and excited
about their progress.
The importance of this can’t be emphasized
enough. Motivated learners learn faster and retain
more knowledge – Flipped English Learning
maintains motivation and momentum.

8. Four
Students progress
where it matters most
– and at their own rate.
Traditional learning forces students to progress at
an average pace for the class. So slower learners
are left behind and faster learners get bored.
And it’s not just the pace that gets averaged out
– it’s the material, too.
With Flipped English Learning, learners focus on
the skills they most need for their jobs.
A finance executive may need to read the
financial press with perfect comprehension.
An engineer may need to write complex
research papers in English.
A customer service professional may need to
master spoken English.
Flipped English Learning means each student can
focus on the skills they most need for their jobs –
and do it at the perfect speed for them.

9. Five
It keeps learning fun.
We learn better when the learning materials take
different forms.
Flipped English Learning maximizes this diversity
with a rich blend of video, audio, interactivity, text,
conversation and classroom learning.
And because the online lessons are developed
by expert educators, they all meet the consistently
high standards that no single teacher
can guarantee.
The result: learning that keeps people engaged
and progressing – because it’s more varied,
more interesting and more fun.
