This is for you if you are or
intend to be in business, studying business, or are just
interested in business. You will study in a General English
class in the mornings and a special business class in the
afternoons.
The content of the course depends very much on what the
students need, but focuses mostly on the following areas:
• business vocabulary (for
example: marketing, finance, commerce)
• functional language for business situations (e.g.
meetings)
• practising and role playing business situations
• understanding and writing business documents
• social English in a business context
• cultural differences and business etiquette
• discussion of business and political issues
All of these will be looked at
using a variety of different material and facilities. For
example, you might use an interactive whiteboard to prepare
and give a business presentation, guided by your teacher.
You might read business articles from journals and
newspapers, and discuss the issues raised, maybe comparing
the situation in your different countries. You might visit
businesses and meet local business people. |
