Language training for employees
Training a team in English or Spanish usually comes down to three options: group classes, self-study apps, or one-to-one lessons with a tutor. They differ on speaking time, flexibility and how easily you can track progress.

Questions about language training for employees
What is the best way to train employees in a language?
It depends on the goal. For speaking with clients or colleagues, one-to-one lessons give each person the most speaking time; apps work for vocabulary; group classes suit teams with shared schedules.
How often should employees take language lessons?
Regularity matters more than length. Preply Business recommends two to three lessons a week for its corporate programmes.
How can we measure progress?
Use CEFR levels (A1 to C2) as the common scale: a level check at the start, then regular reviews. Corporate providers usually offer dashboards for this.
Book a trial lesson to see what a one-to-one session looks like before you roll it out to your team.
