One-to-one General/Business
French Course in Cork
It's no problem if you need to take French lessons specifically for personal use or to help with your career - our trainers mould the lesson plan to your precise needs.
General French courses will cover Survival French, allowing you to be comfortable during short visits to the country; polite conversation, practicable vocabulary and a strong grammatical foundation. A Business course in French will generally cover basic business etiquette in that language, and at a higher level, reading and writing in French.
The possibilities are not limited to these two categories, however. Those taking a Business course will generally also learn French telephone and email skills, as well as learning the basics for surviving short visits to the country. 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.
We arrange Business courses for many clients; primarily those working in international trade, overseas governments and universities, and employees of multinational firms who require a second language. General courses are not simply for those who need to reach a certain level of French for an exam - they are perfect for those wishing to pack up and move abroad, those marrying a French national, as well as those travelling to the country for any other reason.

City information
The city of Cork and its surrounding area is home to around 300,000 people, and is the second largest city in the Republic of Ireland. Often seen as something of a 'rebel' county, native Cork residents have their own distinctive accent, dialect and vocabulary, tending to be higher in pitch than most Irish accents; and often compared with Liverpudlian accents due to the long-standing rate of immigration to Liverpool from Cork.
Home of the Blarney Stone, Cork is a terrific place to pick up a new language, having long stood as a centre for immigration in the region - around 20% of the city's population was born outside Ireland. This cultural diversity means more native speakers of other languages in the region, giving plenty of reasons to study a new tongue.
Language information
Once the most universal language in the world, French has now given way to English as the world's lingua franca. However, with over 175 million people worldwide who speak French, there are still plenty of reasons to learn. Language Trainers offers its eponymous service, having many native-speaking French teachers available who can visit you at your home or place of work at a time to suit you, provide you with all course materials you may need, and teach you either on a one-to-one basis or with the rest of your group. The course can be customised to suit your needs, or the needs of your business.

Watch interviews with a few of our teachers, and find out why the best way to learn a new language is with Language Trainers!:
With the markets opening up in China, I thought it best that our sales team learned some of the basics, to help build our client relationships. The classes were convenient and well-paced, and our trainer even agreed to a video conference when some of the guys were out of town. I think we even surprised ourselves with the conversations we managed, and some of us can even read and write a few characters already.
