One-to-one General/Business
French Course in Edinburgh
It doesn't matter if you want to learn French for business or pleasure - our customised language courses will help you get where you want to be.
While a General French course will provide you with enough linguistic ammunition to allow you to survive a short visit to the country (greetings, basic conversation and a solid grammatical foundation). Business courses are great for those whose career will be moving overseas - you would learn the fundamental protocols for engaging in business in French, and later would start to focus more on the integral skills of reading and writing.
The exact syllabus is not determined simply in terms of 'General' or 'Business' - the course is tailor-made to your needs. If, as a Business student, you need extra focus on telephone or email communication, or vocabulary from a specific field of business, you only need mention this to your tutor. 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 learners who choose our Business courses are import/export professionals, agents for multi-national companies, and those involved with foreign governments and universities. General courses in French suit those hoping to emigrate to foreign shores, people with a view to travel to countries where French is the vernacular tongue, those with a keen interest in French culture and language, and people with foreign spouses.

City information
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.
Language information
French is spoken throughout western Europe, as well as in Canada and many nations in north Africa. 175 million people worldwide speak French, and now, so can you. With Language Trainers you are visited by one of our qualified language teachers who speaks French as a native tongue. Individuals and groups can be tutored, and all learning materials are provided for you. Sessions can be arranged for a time, date and location to suit you, and the content of the lessons themselves can be amended to help you get the most from the course.

I'd always found French really difficult at school, so when I started needing it more for work, I was a little nervous about starting classes. Nadia has been really reassuring, though, and it's all coming back so quickly. Day-to-day emails are easy now, and I'm almost there with the formal letters. Thanks, Nadia!
