THE CONTEXT
Donde se negocia la cosecha del año
A call with a trader in Chicago. A quality complaint from a buyer in Jakarta. An urgent email from the surveyor that you can't pass on to the legal team without losing the nuance. All of it, in English, against the clock.
In the agribusiness export trade, English isn't a language: it's the currency that closes a deal. That's why this program doesn't teach general English. We train your team in the English actually spoken in their daily work: with cases from Argentine agricultural trade, with the lingo of the Paraná River corridor, and with the terms used by traders in Chicago and buyers in Asia.
Por eso este programa no enseña inglés general. Entrenamos en el inglés que se habla en tu trabajo real: con casos del comercio agrícola argentino, con la jerga del Río Paraná y con los términos que usan los traders en Chicago y los compradores en Asia.
