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 courses in Italian are meant for those that feel that learning Italian would make a change in their work. For starters, it is expedient to learn how to say hello/goodbye, as well as basic business protocol; once the basics have been mastered, reading and writing come to the fore. Students who have greatly benefitted have been involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where another language is required, and those working in the international academia and government circuits. Even on our most fundamental beginner's course, students can anticipate ending the course with basic telephone Italian and e-mail Italian skills for communicating, as well as survival Italian if a short visit to the country is needed.
If there are 2 or more of you with the same level of Italian, the same targets within the language, and be able to study at the same time and location, then you'll be happy to know that these Italian courses can also be made available for Two-to-One Italian Courses or Small Group In-Company Italian Courses. Listen & Learn do not generally recommend classes of more than 6-8 people, although Taster courses in Italian can run with up to 12 people. Bookings must be made for all participants at the same time.
In the Renaissance period, Italy was the most important cultural hub in the world; educated European men would generally visit Italy as part of 'the Grand Tour'
Italian also has many speaking communities in Africa; especially in Ethiopia, Somalia, Somaliland and Eritrea
Latin America is full of Italian speaking communities, especially in Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and Uruguay

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.
