Greek Courses for Business in Coventry

SIMON & SIMON’s team of qualified native Greek speaking teachers average 15 years of experience. Professionals and private individuals from all over the UK have benefited from SIMON & SIMON’s Greek 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 Greek tutors. Each student is sent a specific profile on the experience and background of their Greek tutor before they start their course of lessons.

The way that modern languages are taught has gone through a revolution in the past few years. If you have only learned languages at school you will find that the experience now is vastly more fun and worthwhile. The Communicative Approach means that your Greek lessons in Coventry will be almost entirely through the medium of Greek. You will feel that you are making real progress, even in the first lesson, and will soon communicate in Greek with confidence, in a range of social and business environments.

Both 1:1 and group formats are available for our Greek language courses. While most of our clients offer 1:1 Greek 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 Greek in Coventry on a 1:1 basis as the lessons are individually tailored for their particular needs, strengths and weaknesses.

Greek Course Management

A multi-lingual Account Manager with extensive experience is responsible for each SIMON & SIMON Greek language course. A profile on your trainer, Course Plan and course materials will be sent to you when you start your Greek course. After every 40 hours of training you will receive a Progress Report. We will also send you Breaking the Language Barrier, our quarterly newsletter, which contains a wonderful prize draw and valuable language learning resource weblinks.

The Greek language courses of SIMON & SIMON have been run in numerous locations. As we have a global network of language trainers your Greek language course can be arranged in major cities across Europe and further afield. Most of our clients arrange for their Greek lessons to be run in their offices so that there is less need for travel, but we can also run Greek lessons in your home. We also run residential full-time Greek language courses in a variety of locations which our office will be happy to inform you of.

Coventry Greek Course Schedules

The Greek language courses in Coventry 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. Greek courses run from Monday to Friday, any time from 8am to 8pm. Intensive Greek 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 Greek language course we will assess your level of Greek and speak to you about your aims so that your Greek language course can be customised for you. You may have never been exposed to Greek before and wish to develop basic survival skills, or you may have some experience and wish to be able to speak more fluently in Greek when discussing business. You may want to further your ability to use Greek in negotiations and meetings or better your comprehension and pronunciation abilities. Whatever goals you may have, our experienced Greek language trainers will tailor your Greek course so that your goals can be quickly met.

Greek Language Examination Courses

We are happy to help in your preparation for any Greek 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 Greek teachers in Coventry. Issuing of results certificates, registration for Greek 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.

Greek an independent branch of the Indo-European family of languages, is the language of the Greeks. Native to the southern Balkans, it has the longest documented history of any Indo-European language, spanning 34 centuries of written records. Its writing system has been the Greek alphabet for the majority of its history; other systems, such as Linear B and the Cypriot syllabary, were previously used. The alphabet arose from the Phoenician script, and was in turn the basis of the Latin, Cyrillic, Coptic, and many other writing systems.

Coventry is a city and metropolitan borough in the county of West Midlands in England. Coventry is the 9th largest city in England and the 11th largest in the United Kingdom. It is also the second largest city in the English Midlands, after Birmingham, with a population of 300,848, although both Leicester and Nottingham have larger urban areas. The population of Coventry has risen to 309,800 as of 2008. Coventry is situated 95 miles (153 km) northwest of London and 19 miles (30 km) east of Birmingham, and is further from the coast than any other city in Britain. Although harbouring a population of almost a third of a million inhabitants, Coventry is not amongst the English Core Cities Group due to its proximity to Birmingham. Coventry became an early 'twin city' when it formed a twinning relationship with the Russian city of Stalingrad (now Volgograd) during World War II. The relationship developed through ordinary people in Coventry who wanted to show their support for the Soviet Red Army during the Battle of Stalingrad. The city is now twinned with Dresden and with 27 other cities around the world. Coventry Cathedral is one of the newer cathedrals in the world, having been built following the World War II bombing of the ancient cathedral by the Luftwaffe. Coventry motor companies have contributed significantly to the British motor industry, and it has two universities, the city centre-based Coventry University and the University of Warwick on the southern outskirts.
