These lessons in German 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 German 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 German history and culture, or if you simply want to attain a particular level of German, this is the choice for you.
German lessons of this type are aimed towards those that need to learn German to aid them with their employment. For those just starting out, it is integral to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and reading and writing can be adopted once the simple precepts are out of the way. Success has come from students who are involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, those seeking jobs in multinational companies, and those working with foreign colleagues, academia and bureaucracy. Just our most basic beginners lesson will have the student finishing the lesson with basic telephone/e-mail skills in German, as well as survival German should a short stay in the country be needed.
2 or more people can benefit studying German together as these German lessons are also offered to groups (Two-to-One German Lesson or Small Group In-Company German 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 German Lessons can be experienced by up to 12 people.

Madison
When most people think of Wisconsin cities, only Milwaukee comes to mind. But it is Madison that may actually be the heart and soul of 'cheese country' (as the locals like to call it). Listed regularly on 'Best American Cities to Live' lists, Madison, Wisconsin is one of the most unique towns in the United States. Surrounded by more conservative areas, Madison is an oasis of 'thinking differently' and political involvement. Madison is the capital city of Wisconsin and is home to the state's biggest and best university, The University of Wisconsin. Known for its liberal politics and wild Halloween parties, Madison is also a hub of knowledge, with thousands of professors and research scientists setting up shop there each year. Progressive thinkers thrive in Madison, which means that it is an outstanding city to learn any language – from French to Farsi and everything in between.
