Our native-speaking qualified English 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.
English courses of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival English - needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'; those studying English usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefitted from these English 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 English culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in English.
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.
If there are 2 or more of you with the same level of English, 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 English courses can also be made available for Two-to-One English Courses or Small Group In-Company English Courses. Listen & Learn do not generally recommend classes of more than 6-8 people, although Taster courses in English can run with up to 12 people. Bookings must be made for all participants at the same time.

English uses the standard Latin alphabet, with the occasional accent used for words borrowed from other languages, such as 'café'

"She is a really good teacher, and I feel that she really prepares the class for my needs. It is a shame that I have to go back to my country - I really feel that I have improved my English"
Glendale
Glendale is the birthplace of many elements of today's commercial aviation industry. The city's historic Grand Central Airport was the first of its kind in California to offer trans-continental flights to and from the East Coast. Today, Glendale is an upbeat, eclectic community in Los Angeles County. With its proximity to the heart of the entertainment industry, Glendale features a mixture of down-home charm and big city beat. Dreamworks SKG and Walt Disney Company both have a considerable number of offices in Glendale, making it a hub for international business dealing with film, television and music. Of the 200,000-plus residents, almost 40% are either Asian or Hispanic in origin, making Glendale one of the great American 'melting pot' cities of the West, and an ideal place to learn and master a new language.
