One-to-one General/Business
Catalan Course in Newcastle
It doesn't matter if you want to learn Catalan for business or pleasure - our customised language courses will help you get where you want to be.
A General course in Catalan will grant you 'Survival Catalan' - enough under your belt to furnish you with a working knowledge for the purpose of visiting the country, allowing you to introduce yourself and engage in conversation with native speakers. Business courses are great for those whose career will be moving overseas - you would learn the fundamental protocols for engaging in business in Catalan, and later would start to focus more on the integral skills of reading and writing.
Courses are, however, tailor-made - you cover in your lessons what you need to cover. Most students taking a Business Catalan course will gain telephone and email expertise, as well as general conversation skills. 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.
Typical Business course students include those in international import/export, those hoping to gain acquisitions in foreign countries, those within multinational corporations, and people who do business with foreign institutions and governments. Clients of our General Catalan courses include people moving abroad, those entering a Catalan family through marriage, those studying for a Catalan exam, as well as those who are simply passionate about Catalan language and culture.

Whether you're catching a game at St James Park, home to the world famous Newcastle United Football Club, or simply experiencing the equally-renowned warmth and charm of the 'Geordie' locals, Newcastle is a smashing place to learn a new language.
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!
