Description

Luan and Mairead are diving into the essentials of planning a solid Business English course — whether you’re teaching online, in-company, or stepping in to cover a colleague.

We unpack why a needs analysis is the foundation of any successful course, how to strike the right tone in a business context, and how to use authentic materials that reflect your students' real working lives.

Additionally, we examine classroom dynamics, including navigating status differences between learners, and explore why you don’t need to be a business expert to teach Business English effectively.

Perfect for TEFL teachers looking to build confident, relevant, and flexible lesson plans that meet their learners’ needs.
