Greek Courses for Business in East Sussex

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.

Modern language teaching is now approached much differently to how you might remember learning languages in school. The experience is now much more fun and rewarding. The Communicative Approach, where your Greek teacher will conduct your lessons almost entirely in Greek means that progress is made from your very first lesson. Soon, you will have such confidence that using Greek in a social or business setting will be no problem.

Our Greek language courses are available on both a 1:1 and group basis, but the majority of our clients offer 1:1 Greek training to their employees. However, with careful planning, group training can offer great value for money, provided there is a real commitment from the participants to get together at the same time every week. We strongly recommend you keep group numbers to 6 or less for these types of courses to be successful. Those learning Greek in at East Sussex on a 1:1 basis will naturally make much faster progress, as the course will be designed around their individual needs and focus on their particular 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.

SIMON & SIMON’s Greek language courses have been run for clients in many different locations. With a global network of language trainers a Greek language course can be held in almost any major city throughout Europe and elsewhere. We can arrange Greek language courses in your home or, as many of our clients prefer, in your offices to remove the need for you to travel. Full-time residential Greek language courses are also an option. For a list of locations, please contact our office.

East Sussex Greek Course Schedules

We run Greek language courses in East Sussex all year. Most of our students participate in no less than one 90-minute lesson per week, but many students will participate in more if work commitments allow. Weekend Courses can be facilitated, and our Greek weekday courses run from Monday to Friday, from 8am to 8pm. Intensive Greek language courses are also available and can be run at the client’s premises or a residential centre in the UK or overseas. These courses take place over 6 hours a day, Monday through Friday, for 30 hours per week.

Your Greek language course’s content will be tailored to your experience and goals. Prior to the course, we will assess your Greek language level and speak to you comprehensively about the areas and subjects you are interested in. Students may be complete novices who need everyday Greek conversational skills or have more proficiency in Greek and wish to be able to discuss various business topics such as banking or finance more fluently. Students may desire to bolster their Greek for negotiations and meetings or focus on gaining better listening, pronunciation and comprehension skills. No matter what your needs, you can be confident that our very experienced Greek language trainers will work with you on a Greek language course that is tailored for you so that you quickly meet your goals.

Greek Language Examination Courses

Greek examination preparation for business or other examinations can also be assisted with. Our students boast a 95% rate of passing such examinations, proving the value of our policy of Greek teachers in East Sussex with experience above the average. SIMON & SIMON also organises registration and administration of Greek examinations as well as issuing results certificates as a part of our service.

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.

East Sussex is a county in South East England. It is bordered by the counties of Kent, Surrey and West Sussex, and to the south by the English Channel. East Sussex is part of the ancient kingdom of the South Saxons, who established themselves there in the fifth century AD, after the departure of the Romans, although the area had been populated for many thousands of years before then. Archaeological remains are plentiful, especially in the upland areas. The area's position on the coast has also meant that there were many invaders, including the Romans and later the Normans. Earlier industries have included fishing, iron-making, and the wool trade, all of which have declined, or lost completely. The ancient kingdom of Sussex has had two separate county administrations since the 12th century, with the county town of the eastern division being Lewes. This situation was formalised by Parliament in 1865, and the two parts were given distinct elected county councils in 1889 under the Local Government Act 1888. In East Sussex there were also three self-administered county boroughs: Brighton, Eastbourne and Hastings.
