Program Description
This Online Business English Language Course B1/B2 develops practical workplace communication skills for professionals collaborating with international partners, clients, and multinational teams. Geared toward working adults with foundational English knowledge at the A2 level, this program elevates conversational fluency and business literacy to the independent user levels of B1 and B2 under the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. Learners gain the professional poise needed to navigate cross-border trade, client meetings, service interactions, and career advancement opportunities across export-oriented industries.
The curriculum emphasizes authentic professional scenarios, integrating written communication such as formal business letters, complex email correspondence, project reports, and job applications with spontaneous verbal exchanges, negotiations, presentations, and telephone conversations. In addition to practicing approximately one thousand workplace-specific terms, idioms, and sentence frameworks, students refine essential grammar structures including tense usage, conditional clauses, passive voice, modal auxiliaries, and reported speech. Listening comprehension is trained through real-world audio recordings and regional interviews, complemented by cultural nuances and business etiquette typical of Anglophone working environments.
Delivered via flexible distance education, the course pairs comprehensive printed and digital study booklets with accompanying audio files and digital submission assignments. Personalized feedback is provided by experienced distance tutors who review ten written exercises and ten recorded oral speech submissions to ensure pronunciation accuracy and linguistic mastery. Learners benefit from continuous access to the online learning platform, the smart AI tutor assistant KILEA, and targeted preparation to sit for the optional telc Business English B1/B2 examination.
