Speak programmes are a strategic investment in employee development and team cohesion, combining professional growth with an unforgettable shared experience.
Participants benefit from interaction with professional native English speakers - our "Anglos" - from all over the world, in a 1:1 ratio, creating a lively international atmosphere that encourages both cultural exchange and professional development.
To enrich the experience, companies can customise their programme with additional social and experiential activities, as well as cultural excursions - all conducted in English - to further promote teamwork, creativity and engagement.
We start by understanding your company's objectives, preferences and the specific skills you want to strengthen in your team. We then move on to selecting participants, choosing the venue and setting the ideal duration.
Once the objectives are clearly defined, Speak supports you in designing a programme perfectly suited to your team. Choose from Speak workshops and experiences, or request bespoke sessions built around your company culture, day-to-day challenges or specific communication needs.
Before the programme begins, individual onboarding and Needs Analysis meetings are held with every participant to understand their goals and needs - creating a truly tailor-made experience.

Speak programmes offer a unique mix of team building and English skills development, conducted entirely in English with native-speaker professionals. The balance between the two is defined together with your company: you can put greater emphasis on team dynamics, on language development, or work on both equally. The result is a tailor-made experience that strengthens the team and improves professional communication in English in a natural, engaging way.
Duration is flexible and is defined together with your company based on the team's needs and the programme's objectives — anything from an intensive weekend to longer residential experiences.
Programmes run throughout Italy, at venues selected to offer a stimulating, out-of-the-ordinary environment. Choosing the venue is part of the programme design process and is agreed together with your company.
The recommended minimum level is A2, but programmes are tailor-made and can be adapted for beginners too. An entry language assessment with the Cambridge English Skills Test is available to establish each participant's level and measure progress at the end of the programme.
Yes — every programme is fully bespoke. From the choice of venue and duration to the content and activities, everything is designed together with HR starting from a Needs Analysis phase. Participants' English levels are also assessed in advance to guarantee an experience that works for the whole team.
Programmes are designed for company teams and are sized to the client's needs. As a rule, each participant is paired with a professional native English speaker in a 1:1 ratio — a feature that makes the experience particularly effective. The exact format is always agreed during the programme design phase.
The cost varies according to duration, number of participants, venue and chosen activities. Every proposal is built to measure. Contact us for a personalised quotation — and read what our clients say about us.
The experience with Speak was fundamental in helping us build language skills fast. We never imagined we could feel confident in English in such a short time. It's also an excellent corporate team building opportunity. Highly recommended!
