How It Helps Your Business English

What this resource offers:

Four sections cover the English of a bank visit: the words for money, among them bills, coins, currency, denominations and counterfeit; the people who work there, from teller and bank clerk to bank manager, stock broker and financial planner; transactions such as deposits, withdrawals, interest, loans, mortgages, overdrafts and fees; and the questions asked at the counter.

How to use this resource:

You read each word with its definition and an example of how it is used, and the links back to the main list let you move between the four sections. The American and British pairs are marked as you go, so you learn that a bill is a note, a checking account is a current account and an ATM is a cash machine. The closing questions give you the sentences to use at the counter.
