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

Walter was a ray of sunshine during a very overwhelming time. The TEFL course deadline was pressing, and I was struggling to keep up with... everything due to life circumstances. Walter went above and beyond. He personally arranged for everything I needed and more to ensure I could finish my TEFL studies successfully. He was incredibly responsive and helpful, and I never felt like just another number. Thanks to Walter's personal attention, I feel confident and supported again. Huge thanksread more

I had the privilege of being a student in Michelle Benson's 10 Hour Advanced Certificate in TEFL Classroom Methodologies Course, and I can... confidently say that it was an empowering experience. As someone with ADHD, I often struggle to stay focused and engaged during live classes. However, Michelle's teaching style captivated my attention from the very beginning! Michelle presented the course objectives in a fun and innovative way, and her ability to make even the most "boring" concepts exciting was truly inspiring. I found myself eagerly participating in discussions and activities, which is not an easy thing for me.Michelle treated every student with respect and kindness and encouraged every participant to actively participate. Her encouragement made me feel valued and motivated to excel. Her course equipped me with practical tools, ideas, and resources that I can apply directly in the classroom. One of the highlights was when Michelle taught us a few basic phrases in Amharic. I was thrilled to share this newfound knowledge with my Ethiopian friend, who laughed and corrected my pronunciation. I wholeheartedly recommend this 10-hour practical teaching course to anyone teaching or planning to teach TEFL. Whether you're a seasoned educator or a TEFL student, this course is invaluable.I can't wait to apply what I learned with my students! :)read more
