Your colleagues and yourself can be trained by our native-speaking fully-qualified Macedonian tutors at a time and location to suit you. Classes can take place any day, even weekends, and can happen in the morning, afternoon or evening. If the case may be that your home or office is not convenient, there is always the option to take your classes at the office of your teacher. Study books for the course are provided.
This set of Macedonian tutorials are less specific and more targeted at those who want to get a range of different things from learning Macedonian. Even though all novice students will cover survival Macedonian: enough Macedonian 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 Macedonian culture, and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Macedonian.
These courses in Macedonian are meant for those that feel that learning Macedonian 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 Macedonian and e-mail Macedonian skills for communicating, as well as survival Macedonian if a short visit to the country is needed.
Courses in Macedonian are also accessible for 2 or more studying in tandem (Two-to-One Macedonian Course or Small Group In-Company Macedonian Course). 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 Macedonian sessions can be run with as many as 12 people.
Arlington
Nestled in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas, Arlington is one of the most affluent areas in the Lone Star State. A unique combination of enterprise and entertainment from General Motors to the Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball has helped this once sleepy town transform into the 50th largest city in the United States, and the biggest city without any form of public transportation. Adding to the prestige and economy of Arlington in 2009 will be the NFL's Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys are the world's most recognizable sports team and they have chosen Arlington as the home of their new 1.1 billion dollar stadium. The Hispanic community in Arlington makes up 20% of the population, so learning Spanish is an essential part of doing business there. And thinking in terms of the future, 6% (and growing) of the residents of Arlington are of Asian descent and speak Japanese, Mandarin or Korean making each a language worth knowing in this city of almost 350,000 people.
