Thai Courses for Business in Huddersfield

Both professionals and non-professionals alike have seen great benefits from a SIMON & SIMON Thai Language Course. SIMON & SIMON’s team of qualified Thai 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 Thai 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 Thai Lessons.

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 Thai teacher in Huddersfield will be using the Communicative Approach, where your lessons will, with few exceptions, be conducted in Thai. You will see your progress from that very first lesson and will soon be confident enough to conduct business or talk socially in Thai.

The Thai courses that we offer can be run as 1:1 or group sessions. While most of our clients use 1:1 Thai 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 Thai courses at Huddersfield are more suitable as the lessons and course can be tailored to the individual’s needs while focusing on their specific weaknesses and strengths.

Thai Course Management

Every SIMON & SIMON Thai language course is overseen by one of our highly experienced Account Managers, all of whom are multi-lingual. At the start of your Thai 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.

Thai 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 Thai language course. We can arrange your Thai 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 Thai language courses are also available. Our office can discuss available locations with you.

Huddersfield Thai Course Schedules

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

Thai Language Examination Courses

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

Thai is the national and official language of Thailand and the native language of the Thai people, Thailand's dominant ethnic group. Thai is a member of the Tai group of the Tai-Kadai language family. Historical linguists have been unable to definitively link the Tai-Kadai languages to any other language family. Some words in Thai are borrowed from Pali, Sanskrit and Old Khmer. It is a tonal and analytic language. Thai also has a complex orthography and relational markers. Thai is mutually intelligible with Lao, whereas the Isaan dialect is almost the same as Lao.
