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 lesson are provided for you.
These lessons in English are wider-ranging in their nature, and are driven towards students who have a variety of differing needs. All beginner students will expect to study enough survival English to get them through a short visit to the country, those staying on with the lesson can progress differently, depending on their individual requests and requirements. Whether you are buying property in a foreign country, married to a foreign national, planning a round-the-world trip, interested in English history and culture, or if you simply want to attain a particular level of English, this is the choice for you.
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 lessons 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 lesson 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.
Those wishing to learn English in groups of 2 or more together (Two-to-One English Lessons or Small Group In-Company English Lessons) 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 Lessons can occur with up to 12 people.
English is the world's first language - it is the dominant tongue for matters of science, communications, business and diplomacy; and is the most-used language on the internet by far
English uses the standard Latin alphabet, with the occasional accent used for words borrowed from other languages, such as 'café'
The vocabulary of the English language is by far the widest-ranging of any language in the world - without counting proper nouns there are well over a million words

Los Angeles
Home to around 4 million Angelenos, Los Angeles is a renowned center of entertainment and culture, technology and international trade. With its Spanish name, you would not be wrong in assuming a large quantity of Hispanic residents - a large proportion of the city's population speak both Spanish and English as part of their daily routine; and English only just outweighs Spanish as the city's lingua franca. In recent decades, Los Angeles has had a massive influx of Latino and Asian immigrants, and thanks to the populace originating from over 140 different countries, L.A. is home to over 200 different languages. This polyglotism, present throughout the city, can work as an effective encouragement for those who wish to learn another language, especially Spanish. An intensely interesting and diverse place, the city can feel almost like Central America in areas of downtown L.A., but this is emphatically offset by more affluent areas like Bel-Air and the Hollywood Hills.
