Our native-speaking qualified Italian 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.
This set of Italian tutorials are less specific and more targeted at those who want to get a range of different things from learning Italian. Even though all novice students will cover survival Italian: enough Italian 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 Italian culture, and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Italian.
These Italian lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn Italian 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 Italian, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country.
The Italian courses are also available for 2 or more people studying together (Two-to-One Italian Course or Small Group In-Company Italian Course). 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 Italian Courses can be run with up to 12 people.

Garland
A suburb of Dallas, Garland is a growing metropolis of over 200,000 people, making it the 86th most populated city in the United States. Close proximity to the Dallas-Fort Worth area makes Garland a prime location for top businesses who need access to big city but want to get more office space for their dollar. Recent years have seen a number of public works projects and renovations get underway all of which promise to transform the downtown area into a modern urban presence, while still respecting the historic nature of the state of Texas. Like many of Texas' largest communities, there is a considerable Hispanic presence in Garland, meaning that speaking Spanish can be an invaluable resource for residents. There are also a growing number of Asian countries represented in the citizenry of Garland, including Laotian, Chinese, Korean and Japanese and thus, these are languages which could be quite beneficial as well.
