How It Helps Your Business English

What this resource offers:

The page opens the business section of ESL Lounge and divides it into vocabulary, listening and reading. Each skill is split into elementary, intermediate and advanced, with links to numbered pages of exercises. Topics run from job titles and workplace objects to marketing, finance, office technology, corporate strategy, mergers and leadership.

How to use this resource:

Start at the level that matches your English and work through one skill at a time. Use the vocabulary pages to build the terms you need in your own field, then move to the reading exercises to meet those terms inside emails, memos and reports. The listening exercises let you hear the same language in conversations, presentations and interviews, so you can come back to a topic in all three skills.
