Our Business English courses are designed for business people, office personnel and professionals who want to improve their English for use in business and workplace contexts.
The courses provide a thorough presentation of the essential language skills needed to conduct business and handle a wide variety of tasks in the workplace. The focus is on developing listening and speaking skills, together with input on grammar, vocabulary, and business writing.
The courses are run in line with the Council of Europe's Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEF) and the Hong Kong Government Workplace English benchmarks, allowing you to chart your progress and work towards internationally recognised examinations and benchmark tests.
Each course follows a dynamic, up-to-date Business English coursebook, and incorporates supplementary materials to make your learning more varied and interesting. In class, you will have plenty of opportunities to practise new language skills through role-plays and simulations. You will also be given regular feedback on your progress and will receive a self-study workbook so you can enjoy plenty of extra practice at home to consolidate what you have learned in the classroom.
