Talking Business in Class provides teachers with a wealth of activities and suggestions for student-centred conversation classes. It is designed for use with students who: need conversation as part of an ESP course, want to talk about their occupations and work-related issues, want general conversation practice to supplement their professional conversation skills.Professionals learning English want to talk. They need to be able to talk about various aspects of their jobs and vocational backgrounds. Perhaps they also have to socialise with other non¬-native speakers of English. They therefore need a free stage in their language classes when genuine communication, as opposed to formal coursebook-style practice, begins to take place. Talking Business in Class provides the material for this free stage. The speaking activities in the book set up informal yet focused exchanges between students, bridging the gap between the classroom and the outside world with topics which are real, relevant and appealing to students\' interests. There are more than 50 stimulating activities in the book, divided into the following sections: The World of Work Me and My Job Bridging the Gap, The Business of Thinking Presentations.  Más información
