Spanish Courses for Business in Bath

Private individuals and professionals in companies all over the UK have profited from undertaking a Spanish Language Course with SIMON & SIMON. Averaging 15 years of experience, our native Spanish speaking qualified teachers construct your course so that your individual requirements are met, no matter what your level of experience. Our Spanish teachers receive excellent feedback from our clients. A profile, containing information about the Spanish teacher’s background and experience, is sent to each student before the Spanish 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 Spanish teacher will conduct your lessons almost entirely in Spanish means that progress is made from your very first lesson. Soon, you will have such confidence that using Spanish in a social or business setting will be no problem.

Our Spanish courses are usually offered by our clients as 1:1 training for their employees. Group sessions, however, are also available and can be excellent value for money. Planning is required so that participants all meet at the same time each week, and we recommend that numbers are kept to 6 or less. 1:1 Spanish lessons at Bath mean that you will have your individual needs, weaknesses and strengths catered for, so that your progress is quicker.

Spanish Course Management

A multi-lingual Account Manager with extensive experience is responsible for each SIMON & SIMON Spanish language course. A profile on your trainer, Course Plan and course materials will be sent to you when you start your Spanish 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.

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

Bath Spanish Course Schedules

The Spanish language courses in Bath that we run go on through the year. Each week, most of our students will attend at least one of our 90-minute lessons, but many will do more. We can also arrange Weekend Courses for you. Spanish courses run from Monday to Friday, any time from 8am to 6pm. Intensive Spanish language courses can be arranged in residential centres abroad or in the UK, or on clients’ premises for 30 hours per week, 6 hours a day Monday to Friday.

Before you start your Spanish language course we will assess your level of Spanish and speak to you about your aims so that your Spanish language course can be customised for you. You may have never been exposed to Spanish before and wish to develop basic survival skills, or you may have some experience and wish to be able to speak more fluently in Spanish when discussing business. You may want to further your ability to use Spanish in negotiations and meetings or better your comprehension and pronunciation abilities. Whatever goals you may have, our experienced Spanish language trainers will tailor your Spanish course so that your goals can be quickly met.

Spanish Language Examination Courses

We are happy to help in your preparation for any Spanish examinations. Our students have a 95% pass rate and we think that their success shows the value of our policy of working with above-average experienced Spanish teachers in Bath. Issuing of results certificates, registration for Spanish examinations and administration of such exams is also provided by SIMON & SIMON.

Spanish is a Romance language in the Ibero-Romance group that evolved from several languages and dialects in the central-north of Iberia during the 9^th century and gradually spread with the expansion of the Kingdom of Castile into central and southern Iberia during the later Medieval period. In 1999, there were 358 million people speaking Spanish as a native language and a total of 417 million speakers worldwide. As of 2010 these figures are up to 400 and 500 million people respectively. Spanish is the second most natively spoken language in the world, after Mandarin Chinese. Mexico contains the largest population of Spanish speakers. Spanish is one of the six official languages of the United Nations.

Bath takes its name from the glorious Roman baths which still stand in all their majesty; a remnant of a time when Britain formed part of the expansive Roman Empire. However, while there is rich Latin history in Bath, the United Kingdom did not fail to reclaim this picturesque city and endow it with some fine British significance.

This city saw the crowning of King Edgar and it was celebrated as a Georgian resort. It was also the home of famed novelist, Jane Austen, and acted as the setting of two of her six published novels.

Bath further manages to represent British history through its architecture and places of interest; a fact represented by the city’s flourishing annual tourism. With well over 200 outlets for accommodation, Bath is well aware of its attraction to visitors.

Bath is a city steeped in historic magnificence and, as a result, it is best appreciated with a level of interaction. Whether you are a traveller or a resident, make sure you fully experience this beautiful city with the help of our English language courses.
