Learn Business German in London
Language Services Direct’s professional German lessons in London will be designed to match your exact requirements.
The intensity and level of training, the corporate language skills and the pace of the course will all be created in a very bespoke way according to what your learners need.
You can rest assured that we will meet your goals in a cost-effective manner through a highly personalised and agile service at Language Services Direct.
When you get in touch with us, one of our team will contact you to discuss your learners’ purpose for learning German, any other details or requirements of your course, and to arrange an assessment of the learners’ ability. We will also inquire about which part of London you’d like your German lessons conducted.
Once we have an initial idea of your needs, the best Account Manager will be chosen to become your single point of contact. Your German course will then be handled entirely by that person and the process from here onwards becomes very simple for you.
Your Account Manager will perform a search through our very extensive database to locate a German tutor in London, or near enough to London, that meets your needs.
We are very specific about teacher’s skills here according to your learners’ requirements. For example, if your staff were preparing to be more involved in negotiation in German, then that specific skill of negotiation training is what we will look for in the teacher. We would most likely also be finding a teacher that has experience in your industry, and is as local as possible to your area of London.
Collaboration with the teacher and your Account Manager then happens so that a German course which meets the needs you specified. The teacher’s experience with optimising learning business German in London, along with the Account Manager’s experience with organising German lessons means that they will craft a highly effective course for you.
Your Account Manager will then let you know about your course structure. This will be done in a concise manner so you don’t need to spend too long to decide on it.
The Account Manager will stay attentive during the German course. Any questions that come up can be made to them at any time, and progress will be monitored at regular intervals. If the learner’s HR or L&D department managers require any sort of particular details or progress information, your Account Manager will ensure clear reports are sent through at whatever frequency is desired.
This step is one we pay particular attention to, for two reasons. Firstly, the return on investment has to be made clear to you if this course is going to make any sense for your company. Secondly, the learners need to actually be satisfied with what they are learning and how they are learning it, so we need to make sure they are constantly able to give feedback.
We know we are not the only providers of German language training in London, and that you are probably shopping around to figure out which is ideal for your company.

Your Account Manager will be looking to optimise the value-to-cost ratio with full use of our technological systems and they will ensure every element of your course runs smoothly.
We can produce German language training in whatever format, or mix of formats, you require.
The core course formats that we offer are:
– individual, one-to-one, personalised German lessons, usually conducted at the learner’s office.
– German lessons for up to six people from the same company, usually conducted at the learners’ office.
– 35-hour week (including 1-hour working lunch each day) German language training that can be done one-to-one or in groups of up to six.
– groups of up to 10 people from the same company for non-essential and more informal language learning at a fixed time every week.
– face-to-face training combined with online, e-learning and/or telephone options so your course can be flexible for busy schedules.
The content of your course will be designed according to the requirements you and your learners have specified. Your Account Manager will ensure that every important element is included and will liaise with the German teacher to ensure complete coverage.
In a broad sense, the following are the kinds of skills and areas we tend to cover in business German courses:
• Job-specific vocabulary related to the sector of the business and role of the learner.
• German language skills for presentations and speeches
• German writing skills specifically for business writing
• German oral skills for negotiations
• German written and conversational skills for meetings
• German pronunciation and accent reduction
