Your colleagues and yourself can be trained by our native-speaking fully-qualified Spanish 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 Spanish tutorials are less specific and more targeted at those who want to get a range of different things from learning Spanish. Even though all novice students will cover survival Spanish: enough Spanish 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 Spanish culture, and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Spanish.
These Spanish lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn Spanish to bolster their work output. For novices, you will find it useful to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and once you have become more proficient then reading and writing will come to the fore. Typical students include those concerned with import/export, those seeking work in multinational companies, international negotiations, and anyone working with international colleagues or administration. Even on our most rudimentary beginners course, students can expect to finish the course with decent telephone and e-mail Spanish, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country.
2 or more people can benefit studying Spanish together as these Spanish courses are also offered to groups (Two-to-One Spanish Course or Small Group In-Company Spanish Course). Every student must have the same degree of knowledge of the language, the same business or language needs and the ability to study at the same time and place as everybody else. The booking has to be made for all students at the same time. Listen & Learn do not advocate group sessions of more than 6-8 people, though Taster Spanish Courses can be experienced by up to 12 people.

Spanish Testimonials
"The lessons are going great! Yuriko is a great teacher and she's in the process of finding a suitable text for me. I'm learning a lot of vocabulary and she's teaching me Latin American Spanish (which I prefer to learn). Thanks,"
Hialeah
Located in Dade County, Hialeah is the fifth largest city in the state of Florida with a thriving population that draws people from around the United States, the Caribbean and Latin America. The city of Hialeah was built on a stretch of land located in between the Florida Everglades and the beautiful Biscayne Bay. Home to one of the most enjoyable tropical climates in the world, Hialeah is known for its multicultural make-up and exciting nightlife. For the past several decades, Hialeah has been a destination for exiles from Fidel Castro's Cuba. These Cuban residents have given the town a unique flavor from the music and dance in the area to the food sold by street vendors and four-star restaurants alike. These Cuban-Americans have also made learning Spanish an excellent idea for anyone who calls Hialeah home.
