Our Spanish speakers, fully qualified to teach their native tongue, can train you and, if need be, the rest of your group at a time that is suitable to you, at your home or place of work. Sessions can take place on the day of your choosing - even weekends - and at the time you want: whether it be morning, afternoon or evening. If circumstances arise where your home or office is not convenient, the classes can be held at your trainer's office. Resources for the lesson are provided for you.
These lessons in Spanish 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 Spanish 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 Spanish history and culture, or if you simply want to attain a particular level of Spanish, this is the choice for you.
Those who would benefit the most from these Spanish tutorials are those who feel they need to learn Spanish 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 Spanish, as well as survival Spanish should a visit to the country be necessary.
Those wishing to learn Spanish in groups of 2 or more together (Two-to-One Spanish Lessons or Small Group In-Company Spanish Lessons) can sign up for our group classes. All students must be at nearly the same level of Spanish 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 Spanish Lessons can occur with up to 12 people.

Las Vegas
The city of Las Vegas, situated in the state of Nevada has an unusual history, having originally been part of Mexico until it was annexed by the US in 1855. Its array of lavish hotels and casinos has led to it being labeled the 'entertainment capital of the world'. The most famous of these casinos are situated on Las Vegas Boulevard and are the perfect place to go if you have a few spare dollars in your pocket and enjoy the rush of a spot of blackjack, poker or roulette. If gambling is not your thing, Vegas has plenty more to offer - the city also has a rich and diverse artistic community. 'First Friday' is a must-see event, which takes place on the first Friday of each month in the Downtown Arts District, where local artists and musicians perform to crowds and passers-by. All these attractions added to the fantastic climate of hot summers, mild winters and year-round sunshine make Vegas a great destination to learn a foreign language.
