Relevant, personalized practice for people at work

With Business Result Second Edition, students practise language that is relevant to their work context, so they can use what they learn in real work situations.

NEW Talking Point discussion lessons are based on an interesting business concept, process or approach that is relatable for any student in any business profession. The personalized Talking Point tasks allow students to apply the concept to their own working contexts, and provide the opportunity to use language from the unit.

NEW Viewpoints integrate video into the lesson to bring business English to life - and build communication skills for business. Each video lesson relates to content in the units and builds up to a communicative task. In the Upper-intermediate and Advanced levels the videos feature authentic interviews with leading academics, business experts, and course participants from Saïd Business School, University of Oxford https://www.sbs.ox.ac.uk/

NEW Language Points provide explicit focus on the meaning and form of the target language applied in a business context.

EXTENDED Practically Speaking sections help students put language to use immediately. In every unit, Practically Speaking relates clearly to the unit content, and includes input, analysis and practice.
