Using English for Working Purposes

English is used nowadays in almost every profession, depending on how cosmopolitan an individual feels and regardless of his/her location. Business is usually conducted in English and learning English for business is one of the most widespread interest of adult learners. Share your views on the modern approach in business - the entrepreneur revolution.

Slowly we'll attempt to include all the fields in here. Firstly I shall concentrate on the most obvious professions in which the use of English is indispensable, such as translation, interpreting, teaching/tutoring English. A parallel avenue may be writing, including copywriting, writing for the media, as well as teaching other subjects in English.

Introducing yourself at an interview

Whether you work for yourself or you prefer to have a job, you will have to introduce yourself probably more than once during your working life. In this session we are going to consider the etiquette of job interview self introductions. 

Website Design as a venue for using your English

Not only would this make good practice, but it can also open commercial opportunities for you worldwide. We are currently teaching this skill through our English Corner E-zine. Here are our website design lessons.

Using English in a multitude of other types of work

Another situation in which English is essential (especially if you work in a multi-national company) is management. For those people working at this level, here is a test on management styles - this may be an eye-opener.
