Business Partner A1 PDF,MP3,MP4 download
- Business Partner A1 & A2 is for learners who have studied English before, at school or privately, but what they learnt has not been very useful for them in their job, or they simply don’t remember much of it.
- Now they need to study business English in order to better communicate in a workplace that is increasingly international.
- To achieve this, they need to improve their knowledge of the English language but also develop key work skills.
- They need a course which is relevant to their professional needs.
Students of Business Partner may be working in different industries, in different job positions and in different countries but they all have in common the need to communicate in English in an international workplace, in an effective manner. The objective of the course is to equip students with the skills they need to use English effectively, without anxiety about their language ability.
Business Partner focuses on delivering practical language and skills training that learners need for successful communication when working with people from different countries, even if those learners begin the course with limited language ability. In Business Partner, every unit has a video-based lesson on ‘Work skills’ to expose students to best-practice scenarios of various business situations that they can use as models. The objective of this training is to give learners a better chance of getting a job, or of moving jobs in an organisation.
What’s in each unit?
Each unit is divided into five lessons and each lesson starts with a Lesson outcome and ends with a short Self-assessment section: this is to help learners think about the progress that they have made.
Vocabulary and functional language
In order to meet the course objectives, the vocabulary and functional phrases in each unit focus on industries, jobs and job environments that are relevant to students to help them function in a variety of professional situations. This vocabulary has been selected to answer learners’ needs at work and may seem high level or technical compared to a general English course. It is, however, basic professional vocabulary that learners need to function in their jobs.
Grammar
Similarly, the approach to grammar is to help students acquire language to survive in these situations. The grammar content comes from the communicative needs of learners and is given in chunks, with a light approach to rules. The grammar reference section at the back of the book provides additional practice of grammar points and a recorded list of irregular verbs.
Listening and video
There are many listening activities to help develop comprehension skills and to hear language in context. All of the video and audio material is available in MyEnglishLab and includes a range of British, U.S. and non-native-speaker English, so that learners are exposed to a variety of accents, to reflect the reality of their working lives. Learners will be able to watch and understand short authentic videos, which in turn they can use as a model for the group tasks.
Speaking
There are plenty of opportunities for speaking practice in relevant and engaging activities in each lesson. The objective is to make apprehensive students feel comfortable developing this essential skill for the workplace.
Writing
Learners at this level need to respond to emails and other functional pieces of writing. The lessons provide a model for students to follow, grammar practice of the structures they need to use when writing and functional language stems to help them. The writing tasks allow freer practice of the target vocabulary and grammar, and offer elements of personalisation where possible.
Work skills
Through authentic videos, students are shown best-practice scenarios of different work situations. They then have the chance to study and practise the relevant functional language from each situation. Finally, students are encouraged to activate the skills and language they have learnt and practised by collaborating on group tasks.
Business workshops
Business workshops allow learners to focus mostly on speaking and writing, and offer a practical application and review of the content of the unit.
Pronunciation
Two pronunciation points are presented and practised in every unit, which are linked to the content of the units. The Pronunciation bank is at the back of the book with signposts from the relevant lessons. This section also includes a phonetic chart for British English and American English.
Reviews
There is a one-page review for each unit at the back of the coursebook. The review recycles and revises the key vocabulary, grammar and functional language presented in the unit.
