Our native-speaking qualified Arabic teachers can guide you and your group at your work or at home, at a time convenient to you. Classes can take place on any day of the week - even weekends - morning, afternoon or evening. If needs be, if meeting at your office or home is not suitable, you can take your lessons at the trainer's office. Study materials are supplied for you.
This set of Arabic tutorials are less specific and more targeted at those who want to get a range of different things from learning Arabic. Even though all novice students will cover survival Arabic: enough Arabic to make a visit to the country or make good contacts with the locals, but what do you do from there? It depends on your needs. Those who have benefitted from these lessons have been those moving or investing overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people who love to travel all over the world, those interested in Arabic culture, and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Arabic.
These Arabic lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn Arabic to bolster their work output. For novices, you will find it useful to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and once you have become more proficient then reading and writing will come to the fore. Typical students include those concerned with import/export, those seeking work in multinational companies, international negotiations, and anyone working with international colleagues or administration. Even on our most rudimentary beginners lesson, students can expect to finish the lesson with decent telephone and e-mail Arabic, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country.
If there are 2 or more of you with the same level of Arabic, the same targets within the language, and be able to study at the same time and location, then you'll be happy to know that these Arabic lessons can also be made available for Two-to-One Arabic Lessons or Small Group In-Company Arabic Lessons. Listen & Learn do not generally recommend classes of more than 6-8 people, although Taster lessons in Arabic can run with up to 12 people. Bookings must be made for all participants at the same time.

El Paso
At the geographical crossroads between the United States and Mexico, El Paso is a fascinating urban centre. At various times in history, it has been the territory of the pre-Columbian Manso, Suma and Jumano Indians, Spanish explorers, and 'Wild West' gun-slingers. Indeed, today's 'Sun City' was once regarded to be the 'Six Shooter Capital' of the lawless south. The emergence of the railroad in the 1880s brought in a constant wave of itinerant gamblers, outlaws, thieves, religious types, Chinese railway workers, self-made men, and women of easy virtue. While this very romantic vision is now consigned to the history books, El Paso is still a colorful and cosmopolitan place to learn languages today. The city's range of linguistic diversity ensures that you are able to find a qualified tutor, teaching in their mother tongue, to guarantee you exact expression and correct pronunciation.
