Spanish 1 to 1 Business

These courses in Spanish are meant for those that feel that learning Spanish would make a change in their work. For starters, it is expedient to learn how to say hello/goodbye, as well as basic business protocol; once the basics have been mastered, reading and writing come to the fore. Students who have greatly benefitted have been involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where another language is required, and those working in the international academia and government circuits. Even on our most fundamental beginner's course, students can anticipate ending the course with basic telephone Spanish and e-mail Spanish skills for communicating, as well as survival Spanish if a short visit to the country is needed.

Bristol

With a population of 400,000 people, Bristol is not only a city, but also a unitary authority and ceremonial county in southwest England. For 5 centuries it was the second or third largest city in England, until the Industrial Revolution sparked many other cities to grow exponentially. Bristol remains one of the centres of culture, education and employment in the region. Traditionally gaining economic success via its nautical connections, Bristol has extended its industries to aerospace (playing host to the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta, a major annual hot-air ballooning event) as well as finance, IT and tourism. Being in the south of the UK, Bristol is one of the warmest cities in the UK.
