Top 6 reasons to learn a new language

Client Need

Private tutoring
A monolingual English-speaking physician wishes to practice in Quebec and settle there with her family.

Solution

To obtain her Quebec medical permit, she must pass the French language proficiency exam of the Office québécois de la langue française (OQLF), required by the Collège des médecins du Québec (CMQ).

Consequently, she undertook a semi-intensive private French course at LNM for a little over a year.

Result

Not only did she successfully pass the OQLF exam, but it convinced her to enrol her children in public school in French.

Client Need

Corporate
A French multinational company based in Quebec realizes that its unilingual Hispanic-American skilled workers are not autonomous enough in the performance of their daily work, creating friction with local workers.

Solution

The management team opted for a dual training program: teaching French to foreign workers, while teaching Spanish to local supervisors.

Result

Exchanges are now more productive through understanding each other's language and cultural codes.

Client Need

Corporate
Sterna, a company that recruits qualified foreign workers, wants to take advantage of the time required to obtain work visas for potential candidates to prepare for their arrival in Canada.

Solution

Candidates living in Mexico and Colombia take a weekly online French or English course.

Result

The basic understanding of French or English by workers recruited for Sterna's clients in Quebec and Ontario makes them stand out from the crowd.
