Business English and BEC Higher preparation

Business English

Our course syllabuses are designed to enable learners to develop their knowledge and understanding of the language with a strong focus on communication in a modern business context.

Listening, speaking, reading and writing are practised using a range of activities and tasks to help learners improve and progress. For example, you will practise the skills of meetings, negotiations and presentations through role play activities.

BEC Higher Exam Preparation

These courses are designed for students who are at Advanced level and wish to prepare for the Cambridge Business English Certificate Higher examination. On our intensive exam preparation courses, you will be given guidance and practice on responding effectively to each part of the exam. The main focus of this course will be on practising and improving exam techniques.
