“It’s given me the edge and has made plans more likely to happen…I achieved what I’d hoped for and now the rest is up to me”

Background

Jeff Frankling is Franchise Director for Dor-2-Dor UK, a company specialising in distributing leaflets and government information. They are part of a network of 24 franchised offices around the UK. Jeff had not originally sought language training, having never considered the possibility. However, as the company is looking to expand the franchise network into a selection of European countries including Spain, he decided it would be a good idea to learn Spanish.

Benefits

The course has given Jeff:

  • a good grounding in Spanish, making communicating in Spanish easier
  • increased sales opportunities giving the company a competitive advantage
  • greater confidence especially when dealing with Spanish colleagues
  • the confidence to speak in Spanish, and additionally, the confidence to see that he has the ability to learn other languages
