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 lessons 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 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.
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 lessons can also be made available for Two-to-One English Lessons or Small Group In-Company English Lessons. Listen & Learn do not generally recommend classes of more than 6-8 people, although Taster lessons in English can run with up to 12 people. Bookings must be made for all participants at the same time.
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
English vocabulary derives from many sources, though primarily Latin, Ancient Greek, French and old Germanic tongues
With over a billion 'learners' around the world (added to the 400 million or so people who use it as their native tongue), English is quickly becoming the globe's universal language

Windsor
Separated from the United States by only the Detroit River, Windsor has benefitted greatly from its relationship with their neighbor to the south. The city of Windsor is big by most standards, with over 400,000 residents taking advantage of the thriving business community and local culture. Tourists come from around Canada and the United States to enjoy the nightlife in Windsor and the natural beauty of the waterfalls and other outdoor attractions. In fact, those coming from Detroit, Michigan need only take a brisk walk across a bridge to get there! Windsor's population is made up of locals and a large proportion of immigrants who come from all over the world in search of a better life. With such a multi-cultural, transient population, different languages are going to be commonplace in Windsor. Learning Arabic, Chinese, French or even English can go a long way in this fascinating border town.
