Basic Business Role Plays
This is a collection of activities and role plays for use with students of business English at pre-intermediate level and above. Chosen to reflect ways in which English is used in business contexts, these activities progress from simple to more complex activities within each of the ten units. Exchanging information, giving mini-presentations, negotiating in small groups, and using English in social contexts are just some of the topics covered. Each activity is also based on a theme chosen to be of interest to students already in work as well as for those studying on pre-vocational courses. They include: "Receiving Foreign Visitors", "Travel Arrangements", "Supermarkets or Shops?", "Choosing a Supplier" and "Closing a Hospital". In addition, a full introduction to each unit, detailed notes on running the activities and role plays, a transcript for the cassette and an answer key to the exercises are provided in the teacher"s notes. Case studies, set in a variety of international business situations, are also included.
