Our language coaches have the proper linguistic education and experience in language teaching. They are experienced instructors who make each individual the focus of the course. They have undergone a thorough onboarding process to ensure they are fully familiar with our teaching method. This includes receiving mentorship from our education team and participating in regular training sessions led by our internal or external lecturers.

At LanguageSitter, we also work with native speakers who may not have a formal linguistic education but bring significant added value, particularly in terms of cultural specificity and language nuances.

We carefully select a language trainer who will effectively address your language needs based on their knowledge, experience, and interests.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous companies shifted their operations online and have continued to do so even once the pandemic subsided. These companies also recognise the benefits of online courses, such as increased time efficiency and improved language skills among employees. The shift towards online communication in the business world also provides employees with opportunities to practice the language in real-life situations. In many cases, online courses are the only viable option, especially in instances of remote work or dispersed teams. As a result, online implementation not only facilitates learning in a group but also serves as a team-building opportunity.

However, some companies still prefer in-person courses when feasible. This is mainly because they guarantee employee attendance and provide a break from screen time. In some cases, a negative experience with online training may also drive the preference for in-person courses. When making a choice on the mode of delivery, we always take into consideration the client’s preferences and offer our professional advice. Ultimately, the most crucial factor is to provide companies with a language trainer who has the relevant expertise to effectively educate employees.

The content of an individual or group course is customised to meet the specific needs and requirements of the individual or company. Given that each company, department, and individual has unique linguistic needs and requirements, we design a tailored programme for each client. We do not offer pre-packaged solutions for “business English” as it is too broad a term to be covered with a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we prefer to understand the specific needs and requirements of your workplace to deliver tailored training that addresses your unique context.

Typically, it takes approximately one week to properly organise everything once an offer is confirmed. For instance, assessing the knowledge and preparing a training proposal and offer for five employees takes a day, whereas preparing the same for 150 employees can take up to a week or two.

Upon confirming the offer, an additional week is typically required for preparation, including the planning of the programme and schedule, selection and preparation of a language trainer, and communication of the next steps to the client or participants. In summary, from the initial conversation to the start of courses, it typically takes two weeks, but we have also organised courses in as little as two days. In case of urgency, the LanguageSitter team can expedite the process.

Slovenian is also part of the comprehensive list of languages offered at LanguageSitter®. Slovenian courses, both for individuals and groups, are gaining popularity. In most cases, clients aim to facilitate the integration of employees from abroad into a new living and working environment through language training, even if English is the primary language used in these companies.

While it is true that our prices may be higher compared to other providers, we believe that our tailored approach to meeting your specific needs and utilising your own materials makes our method extremely effective. As a result, you will require fewer lessons and spend less time learning the language, making it more cost-effective in the long term.
