Our native-speaking qualified German teachers can guide you and your group at your work or at home, at a time convenient to you.

German lessons of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival German - needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'; those studying German usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefitted from these German 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 German culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in German.
These German lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn German 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 German, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country.
The German lessons are also available for 2 or more people studying together (Two-to-One German Lesson or Small Group In-Company German 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 German Lessons can be run with up to 12 people.

German Testimonials
"Zack is a great teacher, he is so kind and serious, and also flexible to meet the demands. I took his courses for 1 months before I moved to Germany and it was great that I could already communicate with German people when I arrived here. Thanks Zack and thanks 'listen and learn'. KZ@Duesseldorf"
Memphis
As Paul Simon sang on his hit single Graceland, he believed that we'd 'all be received in Graceland' as he follows the shining Mississippi delta to Memphis, Tennessee. For those of us lucky enough to be in this Mid-South heartland already, you'll know that to be true. Memphis receives newcomers with open arms, open hearts and open minds - which is why it's a great place to learn another language. Memphis is the largest city in the state of Tennessee with a population of over 670,000. However the population of the greater Memphis metropolitan area is almost double this figure, and is second only to Nashville as the largest metropolitan area in Tennessee. These demographics translate into a great opportunity to study a new language by accessing native speaking teachers.
