Book Description

March 15, 2005 1400020867 978-1400020867
Learning to speak clear, persuasive English in business situations presents a challenge for many ESL (English as a Second Language) students. Based on the popular Ultimate advanced-level courses, Business English helps professionals take their English language learning to the next level so that they can apply those skills to real-world situations—in the workplace, at school, and even at home.

Twenty lessons help students improve their English through true-to-life dialogues, practical idiomatic expressions, and examples of grammar and vocabulary usage. Extensive cultural notes describe business culture in America, as well as the ins and outs of daily American life. Four 60-minute CDs with dialogues from each lesson complete the package and add value to this information-packed program! Plus, an extensive appendix includes a guide to English grammar, vocabulary, and list of industry-specific terms.

3.0 out of 5 stars some info is outdated, August 23, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Business English (ESL) (Paperback)
I purchased this book to work with a student I am tutoring in English. The chapters cover a nice variety of topics related to business English, and the grammar explanations are reasonably clear. The conversations on the CD are the standard sort of conversations found in an ESL book--read by actors who pronounce everything much more clearly than a normal person. The book's greatest weakness is that some of the cultural information in it is badly outdated. For example, the chapter on registering for school states that most US schools use social security numbers as student ID numbers. That has not been true for many years, and is in fact illegal. That same chapter goes to great pains to explain the difference between a rotary phone and a touchtone phone. I have not seen a rotary phone in this country in years (and my student had never seen one). This book is sorely overdue for a new edition.
