Success Stories

We provided group business Spanish language lessons to one of the UK's largest phone companies. A group of 10 employees had to improve their Business Spanish for their personal development and to broaden their business opportunities. They found their native Spanish teacher to be excellent, providing the language tuition that they needed, particularly relating to their business sector - which for them opened up new opportunities in the Spanish market.

Since we are the first choice on-site English language course provider for a big tobacco company in Belfast, we arrange language classes for their employees from abroad, and they consistently send us new language learners. They do this as they have found our service to be excellent, and the training to be a great benefit to the company, allowing for their employees to find their way in English-speaking countries. .

A world-renowned scientific centre for the study of botany contacted us with regards to an Arabic course for a group of 10 botanists who travel regularly to the Middle East and take on field work in Oman, Yemen, Iraq and Saudi Arabia. The students needed to be able to have general conversation with the locals in various Arabic-speaking countries. All of the students enjoyed the lessons and found our trainer to be very enthusiastic, professional and easy to understand.

Our client, a worldwide leader in manufacturing roofing membranes with the parent company based in Germany, has seconded to the UK a representative from higher management. The client needed intensive English tuition within the shortest possible period of time, in order to be able to communicate more effectively in English with her colleague, as well as make presentations and understand the British business culture. After a crash course of 60 hours over the period of one month, she felt that this was a very important help to gain confidence and to begin her year in England.

The managing director of a leading supplier company in the nano-manufacturing industry decided that he needed to improve his rusty German level, as he is required to attend business meetings, presentations and conferences regularly in Germany. Having lessons focused on building the German language skills he needed for his work and familiarising him with cultural differences and everyday interactions in Germany, our student has significantly improved his German knowledge, and is now able to discuss specific topics with his German partners easily and effectively.

We provided an International Sales Manager of an important UK company with the opportunity to learn Arabic in order to improve his relationship with his business in the Middle East. He needed a course which adapted to him, as he was very busy with his business. Thus we provided him with a native speaker teacher to teach him the language, and adapted the course to the student as per his learning aims and availability. Listen & Learn do our very best to help our clients who need to learn a language whilst continuing with their everyday job.
