Contents, comment

The Business English course covers the following subjects: commercial vocabulary building, engaging in business related subjects, writing skills, news articles, listening & reading skills and intensive dialogue. Your investment is to learn business vocabulary every week in preparation for a weekly test. A high level of spoken English is to be expected. This is a very active course so please do not expect "school English"!

Nick B. Ponter was born in Windsor, Great Britain, in 1968 and has been living in Germany since 2003.

Nick spent the first part of his career in the Army where he served 22 years abroad. Of particular interest are his six years attached to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office where he lived for two years in Bangladesh followed by four years in Pakistan. His time in these countries and interest in languages was the motivation for a successful completion of a Bachelor in International Studies.
