Business English Tasks/exercises

[WillT]

Hi

To all business english teachers out there.

Can you recommend any coursebooks and tasks/exercises in them that worked well for you?

I am putting together a list at elementary/intermediate/advanced levels and would be interested in finding out what works for other teachers. The pay off is that if you contribute I will send you the list.

I think the following links will help you. In my opinion, Communicating in Business is a fantastic book for getting students to speak.
