Our native-speaking qualified Dutch 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 Dutch tutorials are less specific and more targeted at those who want to get a range of different things from learning Dutch. Even though all novice students will cover survival Dutch: enough Dutch 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 Dutch culture, and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Dutch.
These lessons in Dutch are meant for those that feel that learning Dutch 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 lesson, students can anticipate ending the lesson with basic telephone Dutch and e-mail Dutch skills for communicating, as well as survival Dutch if a short visit to the country is needed.
If there are 2 or more of you with the same level of Dutch, 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 Dutch lessons can also be made available for Two-to-One Dutch Lessons or Small Group In-Company Dutch Lessons. Listen & Learn do not generally recommend classes of more than 6-8 people, although Taster lessons in Dutch can run with up to 12 people. Bookings must be made for all participants at the same time.

Louisville
As Kentucky's largest city, Louisville is famous for hosting the Kentucky Derby - 'the most exciting two minutes in sport'. Named after King Louis XVI of France, around 700,000 people call Louisville home. While the population is primarily composed of white, native English speakers; the city is one of the central educational districts in the area, with several universities and many other post-secondary schools. These resources make it an excellent place to start studying a foreign language, even if it's likely you'll only get to use your skills outside city limits!
