One-to-one General/Business

German Course in Portsmouth

If you want to be taught German 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.

A General course in German will grant you 'Survival German' - 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 will centre more on formal, business communication, and focus more on reading and writing skills as you advance further.


Our German 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 German telephone or email skills, or a specific vocabulary for your line of work. In the same vein, the syllabus for General courses is not set in stone - all you need do is ask your teacher.


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. Clients of our General German courses include people moving abroad, those entering a German family through marriage, those studying for a German exam, as well as those who are simply passionate about German language and culture.

Info about Portsmouth


A city of almost 200,000 people, Porstmouth (or 'Pompey', as it is often nicknamed) is a large Hampshire city on the UK's south coast. For centuries it has been the site of major naval activity - the city has the oldest drydock in the world, and while its use has fallen into relative decline in recent years, it is still a bustling commercial port, and used regularly by the Royal Navy.

The city's population is diverse in domestic terms, mainly due to the influence of the Royal Navy. Many de-mobilised sailors from all around the country (as well as Ireland, Scotland and Wales) end up staying in Portsmouth. However, while tourism from overseas is strong in the city, the resident population is mainly white; though this takes nothing away from Portsmouth's capacity as a great place to learn a new language.


Info about German


German is a language known for its abrasive accent and penchant for long, tongue-twisting word formations. To assist you in getting your head around learning to speak German, Language Trainers can furnish you with a native German speaker who is fully qualified to teach you, either in 1-to-1 sessions or in a group. Your tutor will provide all materials relevant to the course, and can be arranged to visit you at a time and place of your choosing. The teaching course itself can be tailored to your requirements, so you're sure that you're learning what you need to learn.
