Language Trainers French 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.

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
French Course in Sunderland
If you want to be taught French for academic reasons, business needs or gain a working knowledge of the language for general purposes, our tailormade lessons are guaranteed to be the ideal solution.
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. 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.
Our French courses would not be fixed to a specific curriculum, however. You know the specifics of what you will need from your new language, and all you need do is tell your teacher. Perhaps if you are taking a Business course, you may want to focus more on French telephone or email skills, or a specific vocabulary for your line of work. 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. 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.

Info about Sunderland
Sunderland is a substantial city in Tyne and Wear, with around 290,000 residents in the city and surrounding area. Historically famed for its shipbuilding and glassmaking, the city's manufacturing industries have now deteriorated, mainly thanks to widespread bombing during the Second World War.
While the city as a whole is predominantly white, immigration has increased over the last decade, bringing in many families from Europe and Asia. This has increased the amount of languages spoken around the city, making it an increasingly interesting city for picking up a new language.
Info about French
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.
