Czech Facts
As with most Slavic languages, many words have many inflections - many of which are extremely irregular
Some words in Czech appear not to have any vowels, such as 'zmrzl' ('frozen solid'), resulting in some teething problems for native speakers of other languages wishing to learn
There are 10 vowels in Czech

Book now / EnquiryThose who would benefit the most from these Czech tutorials are those who feel they need to learn Czech to help them out in their business lives. For starters, learning salutations and business etiquette is integral; once these have been practiced then reading and writing courses can start. Typical studiers have been those involved in international import/export, negotiations and acquisitions, those in multinational companies requiring another language, and those working in any way with international governments and relevant administration. Just our simplest course for beginners will have students finishing the lessons with basic telephone and e-mail Czech, as well as survival Czech should a visit to the country be necessary.
Book now / EnquiryThese Czech lessons fit a broader spectrum, and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival Czech by the end of their course, which will provide them without enough Czech to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of Czech culture and those who just wish to pass a particular Czech exam.
Book now / EnquiryCourses in Czech are also accessible for 2 or more studying in tandem (Two-to-One Czech Course or Small Group In-Company Czech Course). All those involved must have around the same experience of the language, similar needs of areas of proficiency, and must be able to work at the same time and place. Bookings must be made for all students at the same time. Listen & Learn do not advise classes of more than 6-8 people, although In-Company Taster Czech sessions can be run with as many as 12 people.

Cambridge
Cambridge is an old English university town, with a population of around 110,000; 22,000 of whom are students. For its size, Cambridge has an unusually diverse ethnic population, mainly due to the attraction of the university to those from overseas. The city was first founded back in Roman times as a useful place for a military outpost from which to defend the river Cam, and is covered in beautifully-restored old buildings which form the colleges of the historic university, as well as many museums and, more recently, many high-tech businesses in the series of science parks and other developments in and around the city.
