Swedish Courses for Business in Bournemouth

Designed and customised for the individual student’s needs, SIMON & SIMON’s Swedish courses, taught by a team of qualified native Swedish 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 Swedish tutors that we receive from our clients is consistently excellent. Prior to the start of your Swedish course, you will be sent a profile on your specific Swedish teacher’s experience and background.

Maybe your only knowledge of studying languages is what you remember from school. Modern language teaching has recently changed to be much more entertaining and rewarding. Your Swedish lessons in Bournemouth will be carried out almost completely in Swedish. 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 Swedish to communicate in various business and social situations.

The Swedish courses that we offer can be run as 1:1 or group sessions. While most of our clients use 1:1 Swedish training for their employees, group sessions can be good value. Participants numbers should be kept to 6 or less, and they will need to commit to meeting every week. If you require faster progress, 1:1 Swedish courses at Bournemouth are more suitable as the lessons and course can be tailored to the individual’s needs while focusing on their specific weaknesses and strengths.

Swedish Course Management

Every SIMON & SIMON Swedish language course has a highly experienced, multi-lingual Account Manager who oversees it. When your Swedish course starts you will be sent a profile on your trainer, materials for your course and a Course Plan as well as a Progress Report for every 40 hours of training. Breaking the Language Barrier, our quarterly newsletter that you will also receive, contains a prize draw as well as weblinks to a number of learning resources.

The Swedish language courses of SIMON & SIMON have been run in numerous locations. As we have a global network of language trainers your Swedish language course can be arranged in major cities across Europe and further afield. Most of our clients arrange for their Swedish lessons to be run in their offices so that there is less need for travel, but we can also run Swedish lessons in your home. We also run residential full-time Swedish language courses in a variety of locations which our office will be happy to inform you of.

Bournemouth Swedish Course Schedules

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

Swedish Language Examination Courses

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

Swedish is a North Germanic language, spoken by approximately 10 million people, predominantly in Sweden and parts of Finland, especially along its coast and on the Åland islands. It is, to a considerable extent, mutually intelligible with Norwegian and to a lesser extent with Danish. Along with the other North Germanic languages, Swedish is a descendant of Old Norse, the common language of the Germanic peoples living in Scandinavia during the Viking Era. It is currently the largest of the North Germanic languages by numbers of speakers.

Bournemouth is a large coastal resort town in the county of Dorset, England. According to the 2001 Census the town has a population of 164,900, making it the largest settlement in Dorset. It is also the largest settlement between Southampton and Plymouth. With Poole and Christchurch Bournemouth forms the South East Dorset conurbation, which has a total population of approximately 400,000. Founded in 1810 by Lewis Tregonwell, Bournemouth's growth accelerated with the arrival of the railway, becoming a recognised town in 1870. Originally part of Hampshire, it joined Dorset with the reorganisation of local government in 1974. Since 1997 the town has been administered by a unitary authority, meaning that it has autonomy from Dorset County Council. The local authority is Bournemouth Borough Council. Bournemouth's location on the south coast of England has made it a popular destination for tourists. The town is a regional centre of business, home of the Bournemouth International Centre and financial companies that include Liverpool Victoria and PruHealth. In a 2007 survey by First Direct Bank, Bournemouth was found to be the happiest place in Britain with 82% of people questioned saying they were happy with their life.
