Our native-speaking qualified Farsi 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.
Farsi lessons of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival Farsi - needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'; those studying Farsi usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefitted from these Farsi 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 Farsi culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in Farsi.
These Farsi lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn Farsi to bolster their work output. For novices, you will find it useful to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and once you have become more proficient then reading and writing will come to the fore. Typical students include those concerned with import/export, those seeking work in multinational companies, international negotiations, and anyone working with international colleagues or administration. Even on our most rudimentary beginners lesson, students can expect to finish the lesson with decent telephone and e-mail Farsi, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country.
The Farsi lessons are also available for 2 or more people studying together (Two-to-One Farsi Lesson or Small Group In-Company Farsi Lesson). All participants must have the same level, the same business or general language needs and be able to study at the same time in the same location. The booking must be made for all participants at the same time. Listen & Learn do not recommend group classes of more than 6-8 people although In-Company Taster Farsi Lessons can be run with up to 12 people.
Arlington
Nestled in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas, Arlington is one of the most affluent areas in the Lone Star State. A unique combination of enterprise and entertainment from General Motors to the Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball has helped this once sleepy town transform into the 50th largest city in the United States, and the biggest city without any form of public transportation. Adding to the prestige and economy of Arlington in 2009 will be the NFL's Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys are the world's most recognizable sports team and they have chosen Arlington as the home of their new 1.1 billion dollar stadium. The Hispanic community in Arlington makes up 20% of the population, so learning Spanish is an essential part of doing business there. And thinking in terms of the future, 6% (and growing) of the residents of Arlington are of Asian descent and speak Japanese, Mandarin or Korean making each a language worth knowing in this city of almost 350,000 people.
