International Language Services Tallinn

Thanks to our friends and partners at the British Embassy Tallinn we have been able to extend courses for ~100 refugees from Ukraine.

Kadri and Phil presented thank you letters yesterday to representatives from two important supporters of our E4R (English for Refugees) language and life skills project. . . Alexander Tskihilov from Admiral Markets and Ify Agboola and Philip Gater Smith from the British Embassy Tallinn. Since April 2022 we have helped over 300 refugees to get better jobs, gain educational entrance qualifications and generally improve their social mobility through improved communication skills. Without our supporters we would not be able to continue doing this good work! Thank you!!

Yesterday Phil and Kadri attended a great event to celebrate the publication of the English translation of SIlverwhite by Lennart Meri which was hosted by HMA Ross Allen. All made possible by our friends at Admiral Markets and Alexander Tsikhilov.

As the war in Ukraine approaches its third year, it's great to be able to announce that donors are still committing to our language and life skills project 'English4Refugees'.

We're starting new courses for refugees in November thanks to our sponsors . . more news soon!

Free English Courses for Refugees from the War in Ukraine will Start in September 2024. Visit the website to find out more!

To mark 2 years of the E4R project, it is only right and proper to recognise the organisations that have supported us along the way. This time we want to thank Slack Technologies for their support. E4R uses Slack for all internal comms purposes and so we are grateful for the pro-level access for this project. As Slack uses a price per user model and we have 150+ registered users, this is a significant boost!

LanguageCert Supports English 4 Refugees

To mark 2 years of the E4R project, it is only right and proper to recognise the organisations that have supported us along the way. This time we want to thank PeopleCert and its language examinations arm, LanguageCert. LanguageCert is committed to developing and delivering high-quality, internationally recognised language exams that enhance the career, education and life prospects of individuals worldwide. Thanks to their support, over 100 examinations have been organised for refugees in the E4R project. These ESOL qualifications have proven essential to enabling refugees to get better jobs, enter university and explore opportunities abroad. So thank you, thank you, thank you, to LanguageCert for your support. LanguageCert was one of the first corporate partners to come aboard for this project and without a doubt encouraged others to do so too.
