Polish Courses for Business in Northumberland

Designed and customised for the individual student’s needs, SIMON & SIMON’s Polish courses, taught by a team of qualified native Polish speakers who average 15 years of experience, have already benefited professionals and non-professionals across the UK. Courses cater for all levels of experience. The feedback on our Polish tutors that we receive from our clients is consistently excellent. Prior to the start of your Polish course, you will be sent a profile on your specific Polish teacher’s experience and background.

If the only experience you have of studying a language is from your time in school, you may not know that there has been a revolution in the teaching of modern languages so that it is both more fun and more worthwhile. Your Polish teacher in Northumberland will be using the Communicative Approach, where your lessons will, with few exceptions, be conducted in Polish. You will see your progress from that very first lesson and will soon be confident enough to conduct business or talk socially in Polish.

Our Polish language courses are available on both a 1:1 and group basis, but the majority of our clients offer 1:1 Polish 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 Polish in at Northumberland 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.

Polish Course Management

SIMON & SIMON’s Polish language courses all have a specific Account Manager who oversee the course. Each of these managers is highly experienced and multi-lingual. At the start of your Polish course, you will receive a profile on your trainer, course materials and a Course Plan. After every 40 hours of training you will receive a Progress Report. We will send you our quarterly newsletter, Breaking the Language Barrier, which contains a wonderful prize draw as well as weblinks to valuable language learning resources.

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

Northumberland Polish Course Schedules

Our Polish language courses in Northumberland run throughout the year. The majority of our students attend at least one 90-minute session per week and many students will try to do more than one session depending on work commitments. Our Polish teachers are available Monday - Friday from 8am - 8pm, and Weekend Courses can also be arranged on request. Our intensive Polish language courses run for 30 hours per week, (6 hours per day Monday - Friday), and take place on our clients' premises or at a residential centre here in the UK or abroad.

The content of your Polish language course will reflect your level and your particular objectives. We will assess your Polish language level before your course, and discuss with you in detail the subject areas you wish to focus on. You may be a complete beginner looking for day-to-day Polish survival language skills, or a more proficient Polish speaker needing to improve your fluency when discussing areas such as law, banking, finance, insurance, sales, travel, marketing, and administration. You may want to focus on improving your Polish for meetings, discussions and negotiations, or to concentrate on improving your listening comprehension, pronunciation and telephone skills. Whatever your needs, working with one of our highly experienced Polish language trainers you can be confident that the content of your Polish language course will be tailored just for you and that you will soon be meeting your objectives.

Polish Language Examination Courses

We can also help prepare you for Polish examinations of a business or general nature. We are proud to say our students have a 95% pass rate in language examinations, and their success further underlines the value we place on working with Polish teachers in Northumberland with above average experience. As part of our service, SIMON & SIMON will also organise the registration and administration of Polish examinations and the issuing of result certificates.

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.

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.
