TESOL Business English course (TBESOL)
Having the skills to teach business English opens a huge range of new opportunities all over the world. The high quality of our TESOL Business English course is confirmed with accreditation by the College of Teachers and this professional qualification in teaching Business English guarantees a welcome from individual learners and businesses.
English is the language of business worldwide, and many professional people are eager to improve their business English. They need trainers with the skills to help them achieve this and, like most people in business, they are looking for results. This means that they expect their trainers to be fully qualified to teach business English.
Who is this course for?
If you want to teach business English, we provide an ideal training course. However, this is not an initial TESOL qualification and anyone taking this course should already hold a TESOL (or TEFL) certificate or diploma accredited by an independent TESOL/TEFL accreditation body. The course should be a minimum of 100 hours (taught course) or 150 hours (distance-learning course).
If you enrol on both our Teaching Business English and our TESOL Certificate courses, you will receive a £25 discount. Students who have already successfully completed our TESOL Certificate will also be eligible for this discount.
If you are committed to becoming an imaginative and thoughtful teacher of TESOL business English, our course will help you achieve this.
Course fees
Our Teaching Business English TESOL course fees start from £255, depending on how you wish to receive the materials. These are available by download from our website, on a CD-ROM or in printed form.

Course length
The Teaching Business English course consists of more than 260 pages of detailed information dealing with all the important features of teaching business English. It includes sections on all the skills that a business English teacher needs to know in order to operate confidently and successfully.
We estimate that you will need about 65 hours to study the course material, complete the various activities, prepare the assignments and follow up on the feedback provided by your course tutor. However, there are no time limits or deadlines so you can take as much time as you need. If you have any questions about the material or the assignments, you can always ask your tutor.
