You and your group can be trained by our native speaker qualified Korean teachers, and can meet at your place of work or home at a time convenient to you. Tutorials can take place any day of the week, including weekends, and can be scheduled for the morning, afternoon or evening. If your home or office is not suitable for you, you can attend the lesson at the teacher's offices. You will be provided with all relevant lesson materials.
These lessons in Korean 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 Korean 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 Korean history and culture, or if you simply want to attain a particular level of Korean, this is the choice for you.
Korean lessons of this type are aimed towards those that need to learn Korean 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 Korean, as well as survival Korean should a short stay in the country be needed.
Those wishing to learn Korean in groups of 2 or more together (Two-to-One Korean Lessons or Small Group In-Company Korean Lessons) can sign up for our group classes. All students must be at nearly the same level of Korean proficiency, must have the same needs from the language, and must be able to study at the same time and place as the others. Bookings must be made for all students simultaneously. Listen & Learn do not propose group sizes or more than 6-8 people, but In-Company Taster Korean Lessons can occur with up to 12 people.

Oyster Bay
As the name suggests, the town of Oyster Bay is thusly named because Dutch settlers in the 1600's arrived and found an ample amount of the finest oysters they had ever eaten. And while this culinary discovery helped propel the economy for many years, the city that stands today thrives because of a diverse business community and a proximity to the hustle and bustle of New York City. Located in Nassau County on Long Island, Oyster Bay is a town of almost 300,000 people, many of whom work in Manhattan during the day and return home to the splendor of their suburban village in the evening. With so many people conducting business in New York City, there has been a spike in demand for language services in Oyster Bay. With business coming more and more from China and the Middle East, Chinese, Mandarin and Arabic are among the 'hottest' languages currently being learned by residents of Oyster Bay.
