Serbian Courses for Business in NorthamptonPlease click a title below for further information: Both professionals and non-professionals alike have seen great benefits from a SIMON & SIMON Serbian Language Course. SIMON & SIMON’s team of qualified Serbian teachers is made up of native speakers who average 15 years of experience. These teachers will make sure that a course is tailored for your specific needs so that you will benefit regardless of your language proficiency.
Feedback from clients on our Serbian tutors is consistently highly positive. Our students are sent a profile containing information on their specific teacher’s experience and background before the start of their Serbian 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 Serbian teacher will conduct your lessons almost entirely in Serbian means that progress is made from your very first lesson. Soon, you will have such confidence that using Serbian in a social or business setting will be no problem. Serbian courses from us can be run for groups or individuals. While many of our clients offer their employees Serbian 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 Serbian in Northampton on a 1:1 basis will give quicker progress. Serbian Course ManagementEvery SIMON & SIMON Serbian language course is overseen by one of our highly experienced Account Managers, all of whom are multi-lingual.
At the start of your Serbian language course we will send you a profile on your trainer, followed by a Course Plan and relevant course materials, and then a Progress Report after every 40 hours of training. You will also receive a copy of our quarterly newsletter, Breaking the Language Barrier, featuring a superb prize draw and invaluable weblinks to language learning sources. SIMON & SIMON’s Serbian language courses have been run for clients in many different locations. With a global network of language trainers a Serbian language course can be held in almost any major city throughout Europe and elsewhere.
We can arrange Serbian 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 Serbian language courses are also an option. For a list of locations, please contact our office.
Northampton Serbian Course SchedulesOur Serbian language courses in Northampton 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 Serbian can be arranged on request. Our Serbian courses are available 12 hours a day, from 8am to 8pm Monday through Friday.
30 hour per week intensive Serbian 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 Serbian language course for your specific aims and level of knowledge. Before you start your Serbian language course we will assess your goals and level of Serbian experience.
Your desire to learn Serbian may be simply to develop basic skills, or you may have some level of proficiency and wish to increase your ability to use Serbian to discuss business.
You may want to develop your language skills so that you can use Serbian in negotiations and meetings or improve your pronunciation and telephone skills.
No matter what goals you have, you can be confident of our Serbian trainers experience and that your Serbian language course is tailored to your needs and your goals will be quickly met. Serbian Language Examination CoursesOur students’ pass rate for Serbian 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 Serbian teachers in Northampton who have a higher level of experience than average.
SIMON & SIMON also arrange registration for Serbian 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 Serbian Courses Northampton Serbian is a form of Serbo-Croatian spoken by Serbs in Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Croatia and neighbouring countries. There are two principal Serbian dialects, Shtokavian and Torlakian. The literary and standard language is based on Shtokavian, which is also the basis of Standard Croatian, Bosnian, and Montenegrin. Serbian is standardized around Sumadija-Vojvodina and Eastern Herzegovinian subdialects of Shtokavian. Apart from Shtokavian, the Torlak dialect, transitional to Macedonian and Bulgarian, is spoken in southeast Serbia. Northampton is a large market town and local government district in the East Midlands region of England. It is about 67 miles (108 km) north-west of London and around 50 miles (80 km) south-east of Birmingham, and lies on the River Nene. It is the county town of Northamptonshire.
The district's population is 200,100 and the town population is 189,474, making Northampton the 22nd-largest settlement in England, and the UK's 4th-largest town without official city status, after Reading, Dudley and Milton Keynes. Northampton is the most populous district in England that is not a unitary authority, a status it failed to obtain in the 1990s local government reform. Northampton's population has increased greatly since the 1960s, largely due to planned expansion under the New Towns Commission in the early 1970s.
Remains found here date from the Bronze Age. Farming settlement probably began around the 7th century AD. In the 8th century it was an administrative centre for the kingdom of Mercia. The pre-Norman town was known as Hamtun and was only ca0.60 acres (2,400 m2).
