Bosnian Courses for Business in Stoke

All over the UK, private individuals and professionals in a variety of companies have gained benefits by taking part in a Bosnian Language Course from SIMON & SIMON. With an average of 15 years’ experience, the native Bosnian speakers of SIMON & SIMON’s qualified teaching team tailor each course for the specific requirements of the student, from absolute novices to those with some experience. Our clients reliably give excellent feedback on our Bosnian teachers. Each of our students receives an information profile on the background and experience of their Bosnian teacher before they commence their Bosnian 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 Stoke, 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.

Bosnian courses from us can be run for groups or individuals. While many of our clients offer their employees Bosnian courses on a 1:1 basis, group sessions can be excellent value. Group sessions do require planning and commitment from the participants and we recommend that no more than 6 people participate in a group. As 1:1 lessons can be tailored to an individual’s needs, strengths and weaknesses, learning Bosnian in Stoke on a 1:1 basis will give quicker progress.

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 has arranged Bosnian language courses for clients in numerous locations, and with our global network of language trainers we can organise a Bosnian language course for you wherever you are - in almost any major city in the UK, Europe and beyond. The vast majority of our Bosnian lessons take place at our clients' offices, removing the need for you to travel, but Bosnian lessons can take place in your home if that is more convenient. We can also arrange full-time residential Bosnian language courses for you - just contact our office for information on available destinations.

Stoke Bosnian Course Schedules

The Bosnian language courses in Stoke that we run go on through the year. Each week, most of our students will attend at least one of our 90-minute lessons, but many will do more. We can easily arrange Weekend Courses for you. Bosnian courses run from Monday to Friday, any time from 8am to 8pm. Intensive Bosnian language courses can be arranged in residential centres abroad or in the UK, or on clients’ premises for 30 hours per week, 6 hours a day Monday to Friday.

Before you start your Bosnian language course we will assess your level of Bosnian and speak to you about your aims so that your Bosnian language course can be customised for you. You may have never been exposed to Bosnian before and wish to develop basic survival skills, or you may have some experience and wish to be able to speak more fluently in Bosnian when discussing business. You may want to further your ability to use Bosnian in negotiations and meetings or better your comprehension and pronunciation abilities. Whatever goals you may have, our experienced Bosnian language trainers will tailor your Bosnian course so that your goals can be quickly met.

Bosnian Language Examination Courses

We are happy to help in your preparation for any Bosnian examinations. Our students have a 95% pass rate and we think that their success shows the value of our policy of working with above-average experienced Bosnian teachers in Stoke. Issuing of results certificates, registration for Bosnian examinations and administration of such exams is also provided by SIMON & SIMON.

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.

Stoke means "hamlet", from the Anglo-Saxon. It formed part of the ancient Forest of Mondrum. Stoke is not mentioned by name in the Domesday survey; the name was first recorded in 1260. Barbridge is mentioned in John Leland's Itinerary from a visit of 1536. The civil parish was originally a township in the ancient parish of Acton in the Nantwich Hundred; it was served by St Mary's Church, Acton. The manor was given by Randal de Praers to his son, who assumed the name Stoke, and later passed to the Beeston and Aston families. By 1622, it was held by the Minshull family of Stoke Hall. The manor was held by the Wilbraham family from 1753 to 1781, and was then sold to the Craven family. During the Civil War, Stoke was occupied by royalist forces in December 1643, together with much of the surrounding area. In the 17th–19th centuries, the area appears to have had a substantial Quaker population; a graveyard at Stoke Grange Farm was given to the movement in 1657 and remained in use until the mid-19th century. During World War II, Stoke Manor provided accommodation for land girls.
