One-to-one General/Business
Italian Course in Cork
If you want to be taught Italian 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 Italian courses will cover Survival Italian, allowing you to be comfortable during short visits to the country; polite conversation, practicable vocabulary and a strong grammatical foundation. A Business course will focus on business protocol in Italian, and later on reading and writing will become more important.
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. Equally, a General course will cover the fundamentals, but further focus in any particular area can easily be arranged with your teacher.
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 cater mostly to those who wish to learn Italian for short trips to (or through) a country where it is widely spoken; as well as those who wish to pass a specific Italian exam, people who want to buy a home abroad, and people marrying into a Italian family.

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.

My experience with Language Trainers exceeded my expectations significantly. I enjoyed my Spanish classes with a competent teacher that was a native-speaker. At the same time I was offered continuous support from the back office of Language Trainers. In addition to that, I did not only make fast progress, but I learned insights about the Spanish culture and cuisine that made me really love the language. Studying became a lively experience
