English Courses in Anchorage
Our English speakers, fully qualified to teach their native tongue, can train you and, if need be, the rest of your group at a time that is suitable to you, at your home or place of work. Sessions can take place on the day of your choosing - even weekends - and at the time you want: whether it be morning, afternoon or evening. If circumstances arise where your home or office is not convenient, the classes can be held at your trainer's office. Resources for the course are provided for you.
English 1 to 1 General
These English lessons fit a broader spectrum, and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival English by the end of their course, which will provide them without enough English to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of English culture and those who just wish to pass a particular English exam.
English 1 to 1 Business
Those who would benefit the most from these English tutorials are those who feel they need to learn English to help them out in their business lives. For starters, learning salutations and business etiquette is integral; once these have been practiced then reading and writing courses can start. Typical studiers have been those involved in international import/export, negotiations and acquisitions, those in multinational companies requiring another language, and those working in any way with international governments and relevant administration. Just our simplest course for beginners will have students finishing the lessons with basic telephone and e-mail English, as well as survival English should a visit to the country be necessary.
English Group Lessons
Those wishing to learn English in groups of 2 or more together (Two-to-One English Courses or Small Group In-Company English Courses) can sign up for our group classes. All students must be at nearly the same level of English proficiency, must have the same needs from the language, and must be able to study at the same time and place as the others. Bookings must be made for all students simultaneously. Listen & Learn do not propose group sizes or more than 6-8 people, but In-Company Taster English Courses can occur with up to 12 people.

English Testimonials
"The classes were really dynamic; I really feel that I’ve improved my English. The teacher was very reliable"
Joeliz M. (Commander, Norfolk Naval Shipyard), English in Virginia Beach
Anchorage
With over 250,000 residents, Anchorage is home to almost half of the entire population of Alaska. One of the most beautiful cities in the world, there are over 200 recognized mountains and 30 lakes within a 50 miles radius of Anchorage. And in terms of sheer size, it is hard to beat – as it is as big as the entire state of Delaware. Home to Alaskan natives, a thriving Hispanic community and even a number of individuals from Korea and Japan, Anchorage is a small-scale 'Tower of Babel' set in an icy climate to the northwest of the continental United States. With commerce that spans everywhere from Russia to the Pacific Rim, and a unique mixture of different nationalities, those who are tough enough to live in Anchorage can benefit greatly from learning a foreign language. Need more proof? Consider this: 94 different languages are spoken in the Anchorage School District.
