Book now / InquiryThose who would benefit the most from these Italian tutorials are those who feel they need to learn Italian 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 Italian, as well as survival Italian should a visit to the country be necessary.
Book now / InquiryItalian courses of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival Italian - needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'; those studying Italian usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefitted from these Italian classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts in Italian culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in Italian.

Seattle
Now don't quote me on this, but with Seattle's international reputation for coffee connoisseurs, an appreciation of a well-roasted bean and an immense figure of coffee consumption - it's a pretty conducive atmosphere for studies of any sort. But in terms of facts firmer than an assumption that students and coffee go hand in hand, just have a look at the quality of language courses in Seattle and the high proportion of mother tongue language teachers found in this coastal port city. Languages of particular interest to study for everyday life in Seattle are Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, German and Norwegian, as these five have some of the highest number of native speakers in and around this vibrant city. The choice of languages to study is abundant though, so get ready to learn the language of your dreams and aspirations in Seattle today!
