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

Colorado Springs
The Springs, as it's affectionately known by all who hold this Rocky Mountains city dear to their hearts, is located just south of Denver in the State of Colorado and near the base of Pikes Peak. While early travellers were seeking pristine recuperation from tuberculosis in the high altitude and dry air of Colorado Springs, these days there are many more reasons for international visitors to pass through and settle in the city. This means that The Springs is a fantastic place to take the plunge into learning a new language! Sister city status with Fujiyoshida (Japan), Kaohsiung (Taiwan), Smolensk (Russia), Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan) and Nuevo Casas Grandes (Mexico) ensures Colorado Springs a steady stream of student exchange and understanding between the communities. It also provides an unbeatable opportunity to study a relevant and fascinating foreign language.
