English Lessons in Edinburgh. Learn English
Language Trainers English courses are specifically developed after an initial meeting to discuss learners' needs and aims. Your qualified, native-speaking trainer will provide materials and cover areas of particular interest to you or your company. Individuals, pairs, and small groups are all catered for, and classes tailored to fit the learners. Lessons are arranged for a time that is convenient for you (morning, afternoon, evening; work days or weekends), and can be held at your home or office.
One-to-one General/Business
English Course in Edinburgh
Whether you want English 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 and Business courses in English differ in style and content: a General course will concentrate on developing confident conversational skills, making short visits to the country less of an exercise in frustration and more about building upon the foundations to your own ends. Business courses are great for those whose career will be moving overseas - you would learn the fundamental protocols for engaging in business in English, and later would start to focus more on the integral skills of reading and writing.
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 English, as well as using the telephone. Similarly, General courses can delve deeper into certain areas of the language that you know you will need.
We have a wide range of Business course clients for a variety of needs; including people who are off to work for a foreign administration, people working in a corporation with overseas headquarters, and import/export specialists. Our General courses cater for people aiming to purchase overseas property, globetrotters, English language and culture devotees, as well as people who need to pass a particular English exam.

Info about Edinburgh
Edinburgh is something of a city of extremes. While the population is relatively old for the national average, the constant influx of the transient student population (around 100,000 out of a city of just under half a million people) makes up for the relative lack of resident youth. The city has a plethora of history, yet is one of the fastest-growing regions in Europe.
For most of the year the city is like any other historic Scottish city - mostly peaceful, with friendly residents, beautiful architecture, all overshadowed by a medieval castle. But that all goes to pot during the months from July to September, as the Edinburgh Festival runs its course, attracting many thousands of people to Scotland's capital.

Info about English
English can often appear to be something of a mystery to a non-native speaker, with its baffling grammar and spelling regulations due to the age of the tongue as well as the various outside languages that influenced its evolution. However, it need not remain a mystery, as Language Trainers can soon have you confidently speaking English, whatever your needs. We have a host of fully-trained native English teachers who can meet to teach you (or your group, if there are several of you) at a time and place of your choosing, providing all necessary teaching materials for you. The content of the course will reflect what you want to get from the English language, and by working both during and outside of timetabled classes, you'll wonder how you were ever confused.
