Whether you have a need for virtual or onsite training programs, PGLS will work with your team to tailor the program to your organization’s needs.
PGLS offers a broad range of language training services to meet any requirements your business may have, ranging from customized one-on-one instruction to small- and large-group training. We provide remote, onsite, or hybrid language training to meet your needs. We have the ability to provide English and foreign language training in more than 15 languages. Our expertise in language training allows us to provide a broad range of other language training-related services as well, such as language assessments and customized language training based on curriculum, materials, and instructional design.
While PGLS can customize the language training program to suit your specific needs, this is an example of a standard Language Training process.
PGLS will work with you to determine the best training program. We offer programs online, at our onsite facilities, and at government facilities across the United states. The language training program can be customized by completing a needs assessment of the student(s) to identify their requirements, learning objectives, training time, prior language experiences, and language assessments to ensure the training they receive is at their level. Level-appropriate materials and curriculums will then be developed based on their needs, requirements, and proficiency level.
PGLS instructors provide contextual and cultural training including speaking, listening, writing, and reading. Kinesthetic, visual, auditory, etc. All students have unique opportunities to develop language skills in the way that best suits their learning styles. Our programs include opportunities for conversation, real-world/hands-on experience, visualizations, and practice with the written word.
PGLS does not use a cookie cutter approach to language learning. Throughout a language training program, PGLS instructors and assessment specialists will measure each student's progress and provide feedback and reports on their proficiency based on various language proficiency scales, such as the Interagency Language Roundtable (ILR) scale. These evaluations help the instructor and the student target specific areas which may need more attention.
