I took the Postgraduate Certificate in English Language Proficiency (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business and it was a great experience! The course was really well-structured and the teachers were super helpful. I liked how we got to practice our speaking and writing skills in a supportive environment. One of the coolest things I learned was how to use rhetorical devices in my writing to make it more persuasive. The course materials were pretty cool too - we got to watch videos, listen to podcasts, and do quizzes that made learning fun. My only suggestion would be to add more opportunities for feedback from peers, but overall I'm really happy with what I achieved and I feel more confident using English in my work as a journalist.

I recently completed the Postgraduate Certificate in English Language Proficiency (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say it was a thorough and well-organized course. The syllabus was detailed, and the course materials were of high quality, with a good balance of theoretical and practical aspects. I appreciated the focus on advanced language structures, such as modal verbs, conditionals, and clause structures, which helped me to refine my language skills. The instructors provided clear explanations, and the feedback on assignments was constructive and helpful. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more authentic materials, such as news articles or social media posts, to make the learning experience more immersive. Nevertheless, I'm satisfied with my progress and feel more confident in using English in academic and professional contexts.
