1. Course description
Besides dealing with the growing number of expatriates, real estate businesses aim at working across borders or internationally where communication in English becomes necessary. As a result, many real estate professionals communicate more often with clients from abroad, so they need more than just English; they need specialized English for Real Estate.
English for Real Estate is a new level of complicated language with a specific vocabulary base. In addition, it must be highly professional and persuasive.
