Bosnian Courses for Business in Peterborough

Designed and customised for the individual student’s needs, SIMON & SIMON’s Bosnian courses, taught by a team of qualified native Bosnian speakers who average 15 years of experience, have already benefited professionals and non-professionals across the UK. Courses cater for all levels of experience. The feedback on our Bosnian tutors that we receive from our clients is consistently excellent. Prior to the start of your Bosnian course, you will be sent a profile on your specific Bosnian teacher’s experience and background.

Maybe your only knowledge of studying languages is what you remember from school. Modern language teaching has recently changed to be much more entertaining and rewarding. Your Bosnian lessons in Peterborough will be carried out almost completely in Bosnian. This is the Communicative Approach and by this method you will notice progress from the initial lesson. You will soon feel confident and able to use Bosnian to communicate in various business and social situations.

Both 1:1 and group formats are available for our Bosnian language courses. While most of our clients offer 1:1 Bosnian training, the group format can offer great value for money. If you want groups to be successful, the members must commit to the weekly meetings and we recommend keeping the number of participants below 7. Progress is faster for those who learn Bosnian in Peterborough on a 1:1 basis as the lessons are individually tailored for their particular needs, strengths and weaknesses.

Bosnian Course Management

Each of SIMON & SIMON’s Bosnian languages courses is the responsibility of a multi-lingual, very experienced Account Manager. When you start your Bosnian course, you will receive your trainer’s profile. Thereafter we will send you a Course Plan, materials for the course and, after each 40 hours of training, a Progress Report. Our quarterly newsletter, Breaking the Language Barrier, will also reach you, and contains a prize draw as well as the weblinks of language learning resources.

We have a global network of language trainers so our Bosnian language courses can be arranged for almost any major European city, or even further abroad. SIMON & SIMON have run Bosnian language courses for clients in many diverse locations. Bosnian language courses can be run in your home for your convenience, but many of our clients prefer to run them in their offices so as to minimise travel. For a list of the locations of the full-time residential Bosnian language courses that we offer, contact our office.

Peterborough Bosnian Course Schedules

Our Bosnian language courses in Peterborough go on all year. Some of our students attend more than one 90-minute weekly session if work circumstances allow, and most will attend at least one per week. Weekend Courses in Bosnian can be arranged on request. Our Bosnian courses are available 12 hours a day, from 8am to 8pm Monday through Friday. 30 hour per week intensive Bosnian courses can be held on clients’ premises or in residential centres in the UK or abroad. These courses take 6 hours per day, Monday through Friday.

We will tailor your Bosnian language course for your specific aims and level of knowledge. Before you start your Bosnian language course we will assess your goals and level of Bosnian experience. Your desire to learn Bosnian may be simply to develop basic skills, or you may have some level of proficiency and wish to increase your ability to use Bosnian to discuss business. You may want to develop your language skills so that you can use Bosnian in negotiations and meetings or improve your pronunciation and telephone skills. No matter what goals you have, you can be confident of our Bosnian trainers experience and that your Bosnian language course is tailored to your needs and your goals will be quickly met.

Bosnian Language Examination Courses

Our students’ pass rate for Bosnian examinations is at 95%, and we are happy to help with the preparations for any such examination. Our high pass rate shows the value of working with Bosnian teachers in Peterborough who have a higher level of experience than average. SIMON & SIMON also arrange registration for Bosnian examinations as well as administering the examination and issuing the 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.

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.

Peterborough is a cathedral city and unitary authority area in the East of England, with an estimated population of 164,000 in June 2007. For ceremonial purposes it is in the county of Cambridgeshire. Situated 75 miles (121 km) north of London, the city stands athwart the River Nene, which flows into the North Sea approximately 30 miles (48 km) to the north-east. The railway station is an important stop on the East Coast Main Line railway. The local topography is flat and low-lying, and in some places lies below sea level. The area known as the Fens falls to the east of Peterborough. The City of Peterborough includes the outlying military installation of RAF Wittering, and as a unitary authority it borders Northamptonshire and Rutland to the west, Lincolnshire to the north, and Cambridgeshire to the south and east. Human settlement in the area dates back to before the Bronze Age, as can be seen at the Flag Fen archaeological site to the east of the current city centre. This site also shows evidence of Roman occupation. The Anglo-Saxon period saw the establishment of a monastery, then known as Medeshamstede, which later became Peterborough Cathedral. The population grew rapidly following the arrival of the railways in the nineteenth century, and Peterborough became an industrial centre, particularly noted for its brick manufacture. Following the Second World War, growth was limited until designation as a New Town in the 1960s.
