Our Business English course is for people who want to use English confidently at work, grow their careers and communicate effectively with international partners, clients and colleagues.

The programme combines General English with current business vocabulary, professional terminology and the language structures used most often in today’s workplace.

The purpose of the Business English course

The course is designed to build the skills you need to communicate confidently and professionally in English.

During the course, you will learn to:

  • Understand international partners and colleagues

  • Take part in meetings and online conferences

  • Conduct business negotiations

  • Present your ideas, projects and results

  • Write professional emails

  • Communicate with clients and partners

  • Work with documents, instructions, reports and other professional texts

  • Use the right vocabulary in a range of workplace situations.

Rather than simply learning new words and rules, you put them to use straight away in dialogues, role plays and practical scenarios modelled on real workplace communication.

Course levels

Business English covers the same language levels as our General English programme.

For comfortable, effective learning, we recommend starting Business English at A2–B1. At this point, students have enough of a foundation to focus on professional vocabulary, business communication and practical skills.

Before the course, you take a placement test so we can determine your level and recommend the right programme.

Learning materials

We use modern coursebooks from leading international publishers, including:

  • Business Result

  • Market Leader.

Alongside the main coursebooks, teachers use original supplementary materials developed around each student’s level, professional needs and goals.

These may include:

  • Current business articles

  • Video and audio materials

  • Professional case studies

  • Business correspondence samples

  • Tasks for preparing negotiations and presentations

  • Role plays based on real workplace situations

  • Materials tailored to your profession or industry.

This approach gives you more than textbook English: you work with natural language you can use in your day-to-day job.
