Language tuition

With 16 years of experience in modern language teaching, I offer tailor-made courses in French and Italian to local businesses.

Modern Languages are no longer compulsory in secondary schools in England. As a result, businesses are becoming increasingly aware of a lack of expertise in an area that was already inadequate when compared with many of our European counterparts. In order to be a successful exporter, a company should be able to communicate in the language of its clients. And it is important to understand that the language requirements of different businesses and different professional roles vary immensely.

We are all busy people, and individual learners need to acquire relevant language skills quickly and efficiently. Adopting the 'teach yourself' approach with a course book and CD is not suitable for most learners, as people tend to give up after two or three chapters. This is not surprising, because learning a language means developing real communication skills while, at the same time, receiving confirmation that what you are trying to express is successfully conveyed.

The solution is a tailor-made language course, delivered by a qualified and experienced teacher who has a good knowledge of the language used in your business, and who can provide the appropriate learning resources.

Please contact me for a free consultation to discuss your language learning needs and to design a tailor-made programme for you and your colleagues.
