Your colleagues and yourself can be trained by our native-speaking fully-qualified Slovak 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 lesson are provided.
Slovak lessons of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival Slovak - needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'; those studying Slovak usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefitted from these Slovak classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts in Slovak culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in Slovak.
These lessons in Slovak are meant for those that feel that learning Slovak 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 lesson, students can anticipate ending the lesson with basic telephone Slovak and e-mail Slovak skills for communicating, as well as survival Slovak if a short visit to the country is needed.
Lessons in Slovak are also accessible for 2 or more studying in tandem (Two-to-One Slovak Lesson or Small Group In-Company Slovak 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 Slovak sessions can be run with as many as 12 people.

A part of metropolitan Vancouver, Coquitlam is a large city unto itself, with over 125,000 people currently living inside its borders. Coquitlam is known throughout Canada for its coastal exports and sea-based businesses, which have provided a large portion of the funds flowing into the local economy since the 1950's. The biggest employers in Coquitlam are the town itself, Art in Motion and the large casino that brings in thousands of visitors from around the neighboring cities each week. Over a full third of the population is Korean, Chinese or South Asian which means that the best languages to learn in Coquitlam are those from the Pacific Rim countries.
