Our Zulu 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 Zulu lessons fit a broader spectrum, and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival Zulu by the end of their lesson, which will provide them with enough Zulu to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of Zulu culture and those who just wish to pass a particular Zulu exam.
Zulu lessons of this type are aimed towards those that need to learn Zulu to aid them with their employment. For those just starting out, it is integral to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and reading and writing can be adopted once the simple precepts are out of the way. Success has come from students who are involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, those seeking jobs in multinational companies, and those working with foreign colleagues, academia and bureaucracy. Just our most basic beginners lesson will have the student finishing the lesson with basic telephone/e-mail skills in Zulu, as well as survival Zulu should a short stay in the country be needed.
2 or more people can benefit studying Zulu together as these Zulu lessons are also offered to groups (Two-to-One Zulu Lesson or Small Group In-Company Zulu Lesson). 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 Zulu Lessons can be experienced by up to 12 people.

Pittsburgh
Bridge across the language divide in the City of Bridges, Pittsburgh. An ideal location to launch your studies of a new language, Pittsburgh is the centre of culture and economics for Pennsylvania and the eastern Ohio River Valley. Like Pittsburgh's favorite son, the pop artist Andy Warhol, many Pittsburghers have Central or Eastern European ancestry, and indeed many German, Serbian and other Slavic language phrases, cognates and rhythms are found in the unique Pittsburgh dialect often referred to as "Pittsburghese." German, Italian, Polish, Ukrainian, Slovakian, Slovenian and Serbian language communities are abound in Pittsburgh - and according to population figures Pittsburgh is even the third largest Croatian town behind Zagreb and Split. This all means amazing chances to learn from a native-speaking teacher and for conversing in your everyday life!
