It employs the former language teaching staff of that organization with their very successful experience in teaching languages to business people since 1992.

Method
At KMT languages are taught using the “Method of Active Teaching”. The method is based on the some of the most advanced methodology and research methods of proven successful intensive foreign language learning. The method takes into consideration the age of students, the lack of time that business people can dedicate to language learning, and the often irregular attendance of students at lessons due to their business trips, meetings and work pressures.
