A commercial apprenticeship with a vocational baccalaureate offers a wide range of opportunities - not only professionally, but also personally. The opportunity to complete a language study trip to improve your English skills and immerse yourself in a new culture at the same time is particularly valuable. Thanks to my training at Ganahl Immobilien AG, I was able to have exactly this experience.
As part of my training, I visited the Southbourne School of English in England for a fortnight with my class. The aim of this stay was to optimally prepare us for the Cambridge B2 English certificate. Staying with host families, we had the perfect opportunity to practise English in everyday life and experience British culture at first hand.
This stay was much more than just a language course. The combination of intensive lessons, direct application in everyday life and exciting experiences made these two weeks an experience that went far beyond the classroom. A particular highlight was the weekend in London, where we visited sights such as Tower Bridge, Big Ben and the London Eye with a tour guide. Experiences like these made the language study trip not only educational, but also unforgettable.
The lessons at Southbourne School of English were excellently structured. In the first week, we were divided into groups according to our language level in order to compensate for individual weaknesses. In the second week, the focus was on intensive preparation for the B2 certificate - a valuable foundation for our professional future.
Ganahl Immobilien AG not only provides its apprentices with sound commercial training, but also invests in their personal development. The language study trip not only helped me linguistically, but also personally. I learnt to find my way in a foreign environment, to communicate more confidently and to strengthen my intercultural skills - skills that are a great advantage in professional life.
This language study trip showed me once again what opportunities a commercial apprenticeship with a vocational baccalaureate can offer. I am grateful to be part of a company that supports further training and enables us to gain valuable experience. After all, it is precisely experiences like these that shape us and lay the foundations for a successful professional future.
