Description
This course aims to help participants become more comfortable dealing with numbers in English. This skill is so important for professionals who are conducting international trade, delivering presentations, participating in meetings, or analysing and sharing data. Additionally, it’s crucial to know how to tell the time, work with dates and understand monetary amounts in English.
It is so easy to make mistakes when talking about figures, and misunderstandings can be very expensive. These videos and quizzes are designed to eliminate confusion, and reduce mistakes. It’s a subject that does not get covered very often, as not all English language trainers are comfortable themselves talking about numbers.
The course is composed of :
- approximately 7 hours of training video (with clear subtitles and diagrams)
- 16 quizzes of between 5 and 15 questions each
- 3 Quizlets – self-study flashcards using various learning tools and games

ABOUT INSTRUCTOR
Sean Roe
I worked in international reinsurance, medical underwriting and risk selection for ten years in London and Paris before spending five years as Director of Operations of an insurance company in France. Since 2007 I have been drawing on this background – and my own experience of learning French and German in-company – to write and deliver face-to-face courses for individuals and groups as well as on-line training content.
Having studied economics at university, I have since achieved a WSET Level 3 qualification, a professional business English training certificate from Trinity College London, and worked as an English language trainer in large corporations and universities.
Teaching is my passion, and I love using my unique experience to help students achieve their goals.
