Polish Courses for Business in BerkshirePlease click a title below for further information: Private individuals and professionals in companies all over the UK have profited from undertaking a Polish Language Course with SIMON & SIMON. Averaging 15 years of experience, our native Polish speaking qualified teachers construct your course so that your individual requirements are met, no matter what your level of experience.
Our Polish teachers receive excellent feedback from our clients. A profile, containing information about the Polish teacher’s background and experience, is sent to each student before the Polish lessons start.
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 Polish teacher will conduct your lessons almost entirely in Polish means that progress is made from your very first lesson. Soon, you will have such confidence that using Polish in a social or business setting will be no problem. Polish courses from us can be run for groups or individuals. While many of our clients offer their employees Polish 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 Polish in Berkshire on a 1:1 basis will give quicker progress. Polish Course ManagementA multi-lingual Account Manager with extensive experience is responsible for each SIMON & SIMON Polish language course.
A profile on your trainer, Course Plan and course materials will be sent to you when you start your Polish 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. Polish language courses have been run by SIMON & SIMON in many locations. Our global network of language trainers means that any major city in the UK Europe, and beyond can hold your Polish language course.
We can arrange your Polish 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 Polish language courses are also available. Our office can discuss available locations with you. Berkshire Polish Course SchedulesOur Polish language courses in Berkshire 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 Polish can be arranged on request. Our Polish courses are available 12 hours a day, from 8am to 8pm Monday through Friday.
30 hour per week intensive Polish 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 Polish language course for your specific aims and level of knowledge. Before you start your Polish language course we will assess your goals and level of Polish experience.
Your desire to learn Polish may be simply to develop basic skills, or you may have some level of proficiency and wish to increase your ability to use Polish to discuss business.
You may want to develop your language skills so that you can use Polish in negotiations and meetings or improve your pronunciation and telephone skills.
No matter what goals you have, you can be confident of our Polish trainers experience and that your Polish language course is tailored to your needs and your goals will be quickly met. Polish Language Examination CoursesOur students’ pass rate for Polish 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 Polish teachers in Berkshire who have a higher level of experience than average.
SIMON & SIMON also arrange registration for Polish 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.

SIMON & SIMON International
Breaking the Language Barrier Back to top of Polish Courses Berkshire Polish describes a Lechitic subgroup of West Slavic languages in Central Europe and the official language of Poland. Its written standard is the Polish alphabet which corresponds to the Latin alphabet with several additions. Polish-speakers use the language in a uniform manner throughout most of Poland. Despite the pressure of non-Polish administrations in Poland, who have often attempted to suppress the Polish language, a rich literature has developed over the centuries and the language is currently the largest in terms of speakers of the West Slavic group. It is also the third most widely spoken Slavic language, after Russian and Ukrainian. Berkshire is a historic county in the South East of England. It is also often referred to as the Royal County of Berkshire because of the presence of the royal residence of Windsor Castle in the county; this usage, which dates to the 19th century at least, was recognised by the Queen in 1958, and letters patent issued confirming this in 1974.
Berkshire borders the counties of Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Surrey, Wiltshire and Hampshire, and is usually regarded as one of the home counties. Under boundary changes in 1995, it also acquired a boundary with Greater London.
Historically the county town was Abingdon, but in 1867 the town of Reading – by then much larger – superseded Abingdon in this role. In 1974 local government reorganisation moved Abingdon and several other north-west Berkshire towns into Oxfordshire. A later reorganisation, in 1998, abolished Berkshire County Council, although retaining Berkshire as a ceremonial county. The highest tier of local government in Berkshire are now the unitary authorities of Bracknell Forest, Reading, Slough, West Berkshire, Windsor and Maidenhead and Wokingham.
