These Farsi lessons are more general in nature and are targeted at students with a whole range of different needs. While all beginners level students can expect to cover Survival Farsi - required for short visits to a country where English may not be spoken and/or the intention is to make good contacts with the local population, students then generally progress in different directions depending on their needs. Typical students include those buying property overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people about to set off on that long-awaited world trip, Farsi culture enthusiasts and those who are keen to pass a particular Farsi examination.
These Farsi Lessons are intended for people who really need to learn Farsi to help make that difference in their work. For beginners, it will be useful to learn greetings and basic business etiquette, at higher levels reading and then writing become more important. Typical students include those involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where an additional language is required, and those working with international colleagues, academia and government. Even on our most basic lesson for Beginners, students should expect to end the lesson with basic Telephone Farsi and e-mail Farsi skills for communications as well as Survival Farsi required for short visits to a country.
2 or more people can benefit studying Farsi together as these Farsi lessons are also offered to groups (Two-to-One Farsi Lesson or Small Group In-Company Farsi Lesson). Every student must have the same degree of knowledge of the language, the same business or language needs and the ability to study at the same time and place as everybody else. The booking has to be made for all students at the same time. Listen & Learn do not advocate group sessions of more than 6-8 people, though Taster Farsi Lessons can be experienced by up to 12 people.
Oyster Bay
As the name suggests, the town of Oyster Bay is thusly named because Dutch settlers in the 1600's arrived and found an ample amount of the finest oysters they had ever eaten. And while this culinary discovery helped propel the economy for many years, the city that stands today thrives because of a diverse business community and a proximity to the hustle and bustle of New York City. Located in Nassau County on Long Island, Oyster Bay is a town of almost 300,000 people, many of whom work in Manhattan during the day and return home to the splendor of their suburban village in the evening. With so many people conducting business in New York City, there has been a spike in demand for language services in Oyster Bay. With business coming more and more from China and the Middle East, Chinese, Mandarin and Arabic are among the 'hottest' languages currently being learned by residents of Oyster Bay.
