Questions and Answers

What does TBE stand for?

TBE stands for Teaching Business English.

What is Business English?

Business English is the type of language and communication styles used in a business context. These include finance and banking, international trade, law, politics, all types of commerce and various office settings. 

Teaching Business English is much more than vocabulary and grammar…it considers all types of professional scenarios such as meetings, presentations, negotiating, email and report writing as well as socializing and small talk. 

Who learns Business English?

Business English is important for anyone who wishes to work in an environment that communicates with the English speaking world. Business English learners are career-focused and often very driven.

How do I get a job teaching Business English?

There are no prerequisite qualifications to become a Business English teacher, however you should hold an internationally recognised TEFL qualification and have some teaching experience. Having a commercial or business background will help your employment chances, since you’ll be familiar with the vocabulary, communication styles and etiquette already. 

Taking a professional development course in teaching Business English will help you understand how to get the best results with your class.

How much do Business English teachers get paid?

Business English teachers can expect to earn between US$20 – $40 per hour. This will depend on class size, previous experience and the country / origin of your learners.

Is it hard to teach Business English?

Teaching Business English can be challenging, particularly if you have little or no commercial experience. The most successful Business English teachers have extensive knowledge of the industry they teach about. That said, even without a business background, a fluent English speaker can equip a Business English learner with strong foundations of how to communicate in a professional context.

How do you teach Business English?

Teaching Business English involves preparing learners for many types of professional scenarios including meetings, presentations, negotiations, email and report writing plus socializing and small talk. It is much more than simply teaching industry-specific vocabulary.

Successful Business English teachers will follow these 5 key tips:

  1. Have clear learner-defined goals
  2. Have clarity about context and learner industry / sectors
  3. Keep it specific and choose relevant materials
  4. Be flexible (you may need to go off plan more regularly than with other learner groups)
  5. Set a professional tone

I just completed the 10-hour Virtual TEFL Course and am on a high! Our tutor, Michelle Benson, was enthusiastic and informative and... involved everyone in the lessons, building a good rapport and making the whole experience fun and engaging. The course is well structured with lots of interaction, giving those who are a little shy or nervous about talking in front of others more confidence. I found the teaching practice stage and feedback invaluable. I recommend this course for teaching practice, lesson planning, tutoring and peer motivation. My confidence has improved thanks to this course, and I can't wait to teach my first student. Thank you, Michelle!read more

As someone with no prior experience in teaching, the two-day 10 hour TEFL classroom methodologies course made me more confident in planning... lessons and knowing what to teach students at different levels. The instructor, Michelle Benson, gave a well structured course that covered a lot of important topics. We had to plan a short lesson on the second day, and Michelle gave us very great feedback and what was good and what we can improve on. I would recommend this to anyone who is starting out in teaching English.read more
