How to Improve Your Business English at Work

Good business English is built a little each day. Read one work email aloud every morning and note any phrase you would like to use yourself.
Write short messages first. Say one thing clearly, then add the detail. Ask a colleague or tutor to check your writing once a week.
Speak slowly and clearly. People remember clear words, not long ones. Lerato MolefeOur Business English Speaking and Writing course gives you live practice with a tutor. You can also repeat the self-paced lessons on your phone until meetings and emails feel easier.
Practise a little every day
Ten minutes a day works better than one long session on Saturday. Read the news, repeat new phrases out loud and write two sentences about your workday. Small habits add up fast.
Get feedback from a real person
Ask your tutor or a colleague to correct your emails and listen to you speak. In our live classes, Lerato gives friendly, specific feedback so you fix mistakes early.

Useful post for teachers. The advice on running lessons online is practical and easy to follow. I will try it with my class.

Really clear explanations. I like that you mention data costs and load shedding. A helpful resource for learners and teachers alike.
