New Adaptive Software for Learning English Now Available to Corporations & Government Agencies People Skills International Announces New Product
Atlanta, GA (ContentDesk) May 22, 2006 -- Atlanta-based People Skills International announces a new product to increase the productivity of corporations and government agencies who have a diverse workforce representing several languages. People Skills International is now offering the Technology Assisted Language Learning (TALL) system to help employees improve their English, thereby improving customer service and organizational productivity.
Without English language skills businesspeople cant communicate with their customers, do meaningful market research, get credit, do their banking or accountancy or develop customer relations, states Dr. Eser Altinay of Oxford Brookes University. You need language skills to discover what your customers want and to provide it for them competently. ???????????????TALL is a unique approach to learning the English language that doesnt just focus on technology or classroom instruction but takes a holistic approach.
The TALL method integrates the best of technology, teachers, native speakers, and real-world practice to produce better, faster results. Adaptive software makes it possible to customize each students learning experience so they proceed at their own pace with personalized reinforcement of words and phrases. Larry Howick, co-founder of Stelar Consulting, international provider of the TALL system, says that Learning English is convenient and easy with the systematic spaced review built into the software that tracks learning and periodically reviews material that was previously mastered. If the program detects that an important concept has been forgotten, it provides an immediate review to ensure that the material is learned. In my work with organizations for the past 20 years, I have seen the stumbling blocks to productivity brought on by marginal English skills, says Karla Brandau, president of People Skills International. It is with great anticipation of maximum gains in productivity that we offer the TALL program to corporations and government agencies.
Not only will team work improve through the mastery of English skills, but employees with exceptional skills become eligible for promotions they would have been ineligible for before TALL English instruction.
The TALL system was developed at Brigham Young University (BYU). BYU is known for its depth of foreign language and linguistic training, offering courses in 74 different languages. The TALL process has trained thousands of accomplished and effective communicators.

Do you try to stifle desires to send them to private schools because of the cost or the perceived 'elitist' mentality?

Does Consumption Of Herb Astragalus Root Really Affect Your Breast Size?
Breast enlargement supplement usually contain herbs (like Astragalus Root), with natural estrogenic properties from plant sources (phyto-estrogens) that work by regulating hormones and promote healthy tissue growth.

The Miracle of Forex
My father, who owns a small parts store and garage for vintage British sports cars, called me up recently and droned on and on about how he is getting killed by the Euro. Confused as to how the Euro could possibly be affecting his small and seemingly insignificant business, I asked him how. "Because of the Euro!" He went on to explain, after calming down of course, that the distributor that he orders his vintage parts from had increased their prices by roughly 30% due to the dollar's poor performance against the Euro. Apparently, it takes about $1.30 USD to buy the same merchandise that may be acquired with 1 Euro.Essentially, the relationship between the dollar and the Euro is the same as we have always had with the Canadians?only, we have become the Canadians in this bizarre scenario!After getting off the phone with dad I decided to investigate this currency exchange question a lot further and came to one startling but very true realization?the stock market is for chumps!
