Our native-speaking qualified Korean 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.
These Korean lessons fit a broader spectrum, and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival Korean by the end of their lesson, which will provide them with enough Korean to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of Korean culture and those who just wish to pass a particular Korean exam.
Those who would benefit the most from these Korean tutorials are those who feel they need to learn Korean to help them out in their business lives. For starters, learning salutations and business etiquette is integral; once these have been practiced then reading and writing lessons can start. Typical studiers have been those involved in international import/export, negotiations and acquisitions, those in multinational companies requiring another language, and those working in any way with international governments and relevant administration. Just our simplest lesson for beginners will have students finishing the lessons with basic telephone and e-mail Korean, as well as survival Korean should a visit to the country be necessary.
Lessons in Korean are also accessible for 2 or more studying in tandem (Two-to-One Korean Lesson or Small Group In-Company Korean Lesson). All those involved must have around the same experience of the language, similar needs of areas of proficiency, and must be able to work at the same time and place. Bookings must be made for all students at the same time. Listen & Learn do not advise classes of more than 6-8 people, although In-Company Taster Korean sessions can be run with as many as 12 people.
Unlike most other Asian languages, Korean employs spaces to separate words
Experts disagree on Korean's classification - it contains aspects of several different language families, including Altaic, Japanese and Chinese, and several Turkic tongues
Standard Korean' in South Korea is the dialect spoken in the capital city of Seoul; while North Korean uses the P'yongyang dialect

St. Louis
Named after the King Louis IX of France, St. Louis is famed for multiple French influences on its fascinating local history. Equally highly regarded are the German influences on this independent city in the state of Missouri. Yet the international links held by St. Louis are not just consigned to the history books. An active cultural interaction with France and Germany is maintained through to the modern day by participation in the Sister Cities International program. Strong ties between St. Louis and Lyon in France, French-speaking Saint-Louis in Senegal and Stuttgart in Germany ensure that the bond of linguistic exchange isn't broken. As a result, St. Louis is a great spot to study a new language! Whether you are interested in Russian, Japanese, Indonesian, Polish, Chinese, Italian, Hebrew or a variety of other interesting international languages, you needn't to go any further than St. Louis!
