Business Partner
With more and more people working in an international environment, there is a growing need for English teaching material that develops business skills and soft business skills. Business Partner, the brand-new course from Pearson, provides a flexible modular approach, functional language and plenty of practice – so your students won’t have to worry about their careers being held back by their English skills!

As real as possible
Business Partner builds on a task-based approach, which incorporates presentation and practice with lots of communicative pair-work and group tasks and projects.
Business Partner offers your students Business Workshops case-studies. As they work on these projects, your students will be challenged to put themselves in realistic professional situations and use specific language in particular contexts to solve business problems. They will be encouraged to collaborate with their fellow students. As a result, your students will be able to use previously-learned material in new and concrete situations. This makes Business Partner a great choice if you’re looking for a new course that activates language-use in the classroom in a way that is meaningful to students.
