One-to-one General/Business
Catalan Course in Limerick
Whether you want Catalan lessons to help you in your general day-to-day life or for business needs, our made-to-order language courses can help you improve quickly and confidently.
General Catalan courses will provide you with enough grammar and vocabulary to allow you to converse with native speakers, and form a strong basis for further learning. A Business course in Catalan will generally cover basic business etiquette in that language, and at a higher level, reading and writing in Catalan.
It is your first session and your own requirements, however, which decide the precise content of the course. A Business course will generally include common conversational topics, as well as gaining greater fluency with writing letters and emails in Catalan, as well as using the telephone. Likewise, a General course can include specific elements that are integral to your needs, for example if you need vocabulary specific to buying property overseas.
Our Business courses cater to a range of requirements. Many of our clients work for foreign governments and educational institutions, corporations with branches abroad, as well as those who buy and sell around the world. General courses cater mostly to those who wish to learn Catalan for short trips to (or through) a country where it is widely spoken; as well as those who wish to pass a specific Catalan exam, people who want to buy a home abroad, and people marrying into a Catalan family.

Info about Limerick
With around 100,000 residents in the city and its suburbs, Limerick is the third largest city in the Republic of Ireland, situated right in the middle of Cork and Galway. As with many of the more sizeable cities in Ireland, there has been an explosion of immigration into the country in the past decade, spurring on Limerick's tourism trade, as well as its reputation for its vibrant shopping and clubbing industries.
In recent years Limerick has become a haven for Polish and African immigrants, and their influences have become part and parcel of the city itself. The Polish community is the second largest in Ireland, second only to Dublin, making it a great place to pick up a Slavic tongue - or indeed any other language from the continent, with the almost continuous stream of European immigrants coming into the city, all the year round.

Info about Catalan
Spoken as the national language in Andorra, and utilised in several territories in Spain (most notably Catalonia, parts of Valencia, and the Balearic Islands) as well as parts of Italy and southern France, Catalan is spoken by around 9 million people worldwide, though primarily in Europe. Spain's re-entry into democracy in 1975 increased the use of Catalan around Spain, which had for so long been banned from being used by the Spanish media in favour of Castilian, the language which non-native speakers generally refer to as 'Spanish'.
Regarded as a language in its own right and not simply a regional Spanish dialect, Catalan is actually divided into two dialects - Western and Eastern Catalan, though linguists can debate that each of these can be divided into several sub-dialects depending on the area in which it is spoken, making it a particularly exotic language to learn!

My girlfriend recommended Language Trainers to me, and I thank her for it. My English has improved a lot in just the last two months, and it has made it easier to do my job and also talk to my English friends. I can finally even joke with them about football!
