Bosnian Courses for Business in Oxfordshire

Please click a title below for further information:

SIMON & SIMON’s team of qualified native Bosnian speaking teachers average 15 years of experience. Professionals and private individuals from all over the UK have benefited from SIMON & SIMON’s Bosnian language courses, all of which are tailor-made to reflect each student's level of experience. We consistently receive outstanding feedback from our clients about our Bosnian tutors. Each student is sent a specific profile on the experience and background of their Bosnian tutor before they start their course of lessons.

New teaching approaches have revolutionised how modern language training is now approached. This training, with more fun and a more worthwhile experience means that it’s a far cry from what you may remember of studying languages in school. When you start a Bosnian course in Oxfordshire, you will make progress from the very first lesson, as almost everything will be done in Bosnian. This is known as the Communicative Approach, and means that your confidence and ability will soon grow so that you can use Bosnian to communicate in social and business settings.

Our Bosnian courses are usually offered by our clients as 1:1 training for their employees. Group sessions, however, are also available and can be excellent value for money. Planning is required so that participants all meet at the same time each week, and we recommend that numbers are kept to 6 or less. 1:1 Bosnian lessons at Oxfordshire mean that you will have your individual needs, weaknesses and strengths catered for, so that your progress is quicker.

Bosnian Course Management

One of our highly experienced, multilingual Account managers oversees each SIMON & SIMON Bosnian language course. On starting your Bosnian course you will receive various materials including a profile on your trainer, a Course Plan and course materials and a Progress Report on every 40 hours of your training. Breaking the Language Barrier, our quarterly newsletter, which contains weblinks to various language learning sources and a prize draw, will also be sent to you.

SIMON & SIMON Bosnian language courses have been arranged for clients in various locations. We have a global network of trainers and wherever you are, we will be able to organise a Bosnian language course for you, not only in the UK but in almost any of the major cities in Europe and beyond. Most of our Bosnian courses are run at the offices of our clients so that you do not have to travel, but we are happy to arrange Bosnian training sessions for you in your home. Full-time Bosnian courses can be arranged in a residential setting for you. Our office has information on the locations we offer.

Oxfordshire Bosnian Course Schedules

We run our Bosnian language courses in Oxfordshire all through the year. Many of our students, if work commitments allow, will attend more than one session weekly, and the vast majority take part in at least one 90-minute lesson weekly. We also arrange weekend Bosnian courses on request. Our Bosnian programs commence from 8am to 8pm Monday to Friday. Intensive 30 hour per week Bosnian language courses, held on clients’ premises or at residential centres in the UK or abroad, are also available on a 6 hours per day basis, Monday through Friday.

Whatever your personal level of experience and future goals, your Bosnian course will be customised for you. Before you start the course we will assess your level of Bosnian and discuss in detail what you would like to focus on. You may desire simply to gain everyday Bosnian skills from the level of a complete beginner, or you may have more experience in Bosnian and want to improve your ability to discuss banking, finance or marketing. You may want to develop improved pronunciation and comprehension skills or improve your Bosnian for use in negotiations and meetings. Whatever your goals and needs, our highly experienced Bosnian language trainers will tailor your Bosnian course so that your goals will be met quickly.

Bosnian Language Examination Courses

If you are taking a Bosnian examination, for business or other reasons, we are happy to help you with your preparations. We are very proud of the 95% pass rate of our students in language examinations. We believe this highlights the value of working with Bosnian teachers in Oxfordshire whose experience is above average. SIMON & SIMON can also register you for your Bosnian examination, administer the examination and issue you your results.

The table below is based on recognised language levels used by various academic institutions accross the European Union. A highly motivated student attending weekly sessions with their language trainer can expect to move from one level to another after 50 hours providing they also commit to a similar number of hours of self-study.

Of course, some people find learning languages easier than others, and some students will have more opportunities to practise the language in the course of their work and leisure, so these factors also need to be considered when trying to assess how long it will take to move from one level to another.

Back to top of Bosnian Courses Oxfordshire

Bosnian is a name commonly used for Serbo-Croatian as spoken by Bosniaks. As a standardized form of the Shtokavian dialect, it is one of three Serbo-Croatian standards used officially in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The same subdialect of Shtokavian is also the basis of standard Croatian, Serbian, and Montenegrin, so all are mutually intelligible. Up until the dissolution of former SFR Yugoslavia, they were treated as a unitary Serbo-Croatian language, and that term is still used to refer to the common base (vocabulary, grammar and syntax) of what are today officially four national standards. The Bosnian standard uses both Latin and Cyrillic alphabet.

Oxfordshire is a county in the South East region of England, bordering on Warwickshire, Northamptonshire (to the north/northeast), Buckinghamshire (to the east), Berkshire (to the south), Wiltshire and Swindon (to the southwest), Gloucestershire (to the west) and Warwickshire (to the north). It is divided into five local government districts: Oxford, Cherwell, Vale of White Horse (after the Uffington White Horse), West Oxfordshire and South Oxfordshire. The county has a major tourist industry. The area is noted for the concentration of performance motorsport companies and facilities. Oxford University Press is the largest firm among a concentration of print and publishing firms; the University of Oxford is also linked to the concentration of local biotechnology companies. The main centre of population is the city of Oxford. Other significant settlements are Banbury, Bicester, Kidlington, and Chipping Norton to the north of Oxford; Witney to the west; Thame and Chinnor to the east; and Abingdon, Wantage, Didcot, Wallingford and Henley-on-Thames to the south. Future population growth in the county is hoped to be concentrated around Oxford, Banbury, Bicester, Didcot and Witney, near the South Midlands growth area. The highest point of the administrative county is White Horse Hill, in the Vale of White Horse, reaching 261 metres (856 ft). The highest point in the historic county is near Portobello Farm in the Chiltern Hills at 255 metres. Oxfordshire's county flower is the Snake's-head Fritillary.
