Our native-speaking qualified Croatian 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.
Croatian courses of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival Croatian - needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'; those studying Croatian usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefitted from these Croatian classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts in Croatian culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in Croatian.
These courses in Croatian are meant for those that feel that learning Croatian would make a change in their work. For starters, it is expedient to learn how to say hello/goodbye, as well as basic business protocol; once the basics have been mastered, reading and writing come to the fore. Students who have greatly benefitted have been involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where another language is required, and those working in the international academia and government circuits. Even on our most fundamental beginner's course, students can anticipate ending the course with basic telephone Croatian and e-mail Croatian skills for communicating, as well as survival Croatian if a short visit to the country is needed.
The Croatian courses are also available for 2 or more people studying together (Two-to-One Croatian Course or Small Group In-Company Croatian Course). All participants must have the same level, the same business or general language needs and be able to study at the same time in the same location. The booking must be made for all participants at the same time. Listen & Learn do not recommend group classes of more than 6-8 people although In-Company Taster Croatian Courses can be run with up to 12 people.
Croatian Testimonials
"I'm planning a trip around Brazil next year with some friends, and we all wanted to learn some basic Portuguese. Our teacher was great - she made sure we were all up to date and we got better even faster by practicing with each other outside of classes. We can't wait to get to Brazil."
Aurora
Aurora is the third largest city in the scenic state of Colorado. Once a historical footnote, (in 1955, President Dwight D. Eisenhower recovered from a heart attack there) the city is now considered an ideal place to live because of the bucolic setting and it's close to proximity to Denver, the biggest and most well-known urban area in the state. In fact, it is routinely named in annual 'Healthiest Places to Live' lists among American cities. For this reason, many of Denver's professional athletes and business luminaries call Aurora home. The city experienced a significant period of growth in the 1980's when the population doubled going from 75,000 to 150,000 people in the span of just under ten years. Aurora is predominantly white, as are most cities in Colorado, but over 20% of the residents are Hispanic and 5% are Native American. Learning a new language Aurora can open the door to new adventures, business opportunities and life experiences.
