Our native speaker qualified French language teachers can train you and your colleagues at your office or home at a time to suit you. Classes can be any day of the week (even weekends) in the morning, afternoon or evening. In certain circumstances, if your home or office is not suitable, you can take your classes at the trainer's office. Course books are provided.
This set of French tutorials are less specific and more targeted at those who want to get a range of different things from learning French. Even though all novice students will cover survival French: enough French to make a visit to the country or make good contacts with the locals, but what do you do from there? It depends on your needs. Those who have benefitted from these courses have been those moving or investing overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people who love to travel all over the world, those interested in French culture, and those who just want to pass a specific examination in French.
These French lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn French 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 course, students can expect to finish the course with decent telephone and e-mail French, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country.
2 or more people can benefit studying French together as these French courses are also offered to groups (Two-to-One French Course or Small Group In-Company French Course). 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 French Courses can be experienced by up to 12 people.

French Testimonials
"I needed to learn some French because I'll be relocating to Canada next year. My Business French course was great - my teacher was real professional, and if I had any questions she was happy to answer them. Can't believe how quickly I got into it."
Anaheim
Don't tell the people of Anaheim, California that they live in a suburb of Los Angeles. This fast-growing city has a culture and an attitude all its own. When urban sprawl first hit Los Angeles, many residents moved south to Anaheim where they could enjoy more space to build their homes and start their businesses. As a result, Anaheim has become the center of Orange County, and is now known for much more than its most famous residents: Mickey Mouse and Disneyland. The Hispanic population of Anaheim is significant, as would be expected with its proximity to the Mexican-United States border. Hispanic men and women currently comprise over 40% of the entire population, making Spanish an ideal language to learn if you live in the area. Also prominent in Anaheim are Asian-Americans, African-Americans and of course the thousands of different nationalities who visit the Disneyland theme park every year. You might say it is the 'happiest place on Earth' to learn a new language!
