Your Hungarian lessons in Edinburgh will be carried out almost completely in Hungarian. 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 Hungarian to communicate in various business and social situations.

Our Hungarian 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 Hungarian lessons at Edinburgh mean that you will have your individual needs, weaknesses and strengths catered for, so that your progress is quicker.

Our global network of language trainers means that any major city in the UK Europe, and beyond can hold your Hungarian language course. We can arrange your Hungarian language lessons for your own home, but many of our clients like to run them in their offices so as to minimise travel. Residential full-time Hungarian language courses are also available. Our office can discuss available locations with you.

Edinburgh Hungarian Course Schedules

We run Hungarian language courses in Edinburgh 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 Hungarian weekday courses run from Monday to Friday, from 8am to 8pm. Intensive Hungarian 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 Hungarian language course’s content will be tailored to your experience and goals. Prior to the course, we will assess your Hungarian language level and speak to you comprehensively about the areas and subjects you are interested in. Students may be complete novices who need everyday Hungarian conversational skills or have more proficiency in Hungarian and wish to be able to discuss various business topics such as banking or finance more fluently. Students may desire to bolster their Hungarian 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 Hungarian language trainers will work with you on a Hungarian language course that is tailored for you so that you quickly meet your goals.

Hungarian Language Examination Courses

Hungarian 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 Hungarian teachers in Edinburgh with experience above the average. SIMON & SIMON also organises registration and administration of Hungarian 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.

Hungarian is a Uralic language, part of the Ugric group, related to Finnish, Estonian and a number of minority languages spoken in the Baltic states and northern European Russia eastward into central Siberia. The Uralic languages are not related to the Indo-European languages that dominate Europe but have acquired loan words from them. It is the official language in the Central European country of Hungary and is also spoken by Hungarian communities in the seven neighbouring countries and by diaspora communities worldwide. There are about 16 million native speakers, of whom 9.5–10 million live in present-day Hungary.

Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland, the second largest city in Scotland and the seventh-most populous in the United Kingdom. The City of Edinburgh Council is one of Scotland's 32 local government council areas. The council area includes urban Edinburgh and a 30-square-mile (78 km2) rural area. Located in the south-east of Scotland, Edinburgh lies on the east coast of the Central Belt, along the Firth of Forth, near the North Sea. Owing to its spectacular, rugged setting and vast collection of Medieval and Georgian architecture, including numerous stone tenements, it is often considered one of the most picturesque cities in Europe. Edinburgh is the seat of the Scottish Parliament. The city was one of the major centres of the Enlightenment, led by the University of Edinburgh, earning it the nickname Athens of the North. The Old Town and New Town districts of Edinburgh were listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995. There are over 4,500 listed buildings within the city. In May 2010, it had a total of 40 conservation areas covering 23% of the building stock and 23% of the population, the highest such ratios of any major city in the UK. In the 2009 mid year population estimates, Edinburgh had a total resident population of 477,660. Edinburgh is well-known for the annual Edinburgh Festival, a collection of official and independent festivals held annually over about four weeks from early August.
