Business English
Business English is a selection of English courses. Listening comprehension exercises constitute the core of those courses.
The courses prepare students, who are completing their higher education, to enter the job-market.
Courses offer a practicle approach to English with hand-picked podcasts, videos, and articles.
Each document illustrates a specific industry topic. Students dive into the topic by completing exercises.
Listening Comprehension Exercises aim at achieving two goals.
First, by mimicking the TOEIC style listening comprehension exercises, the LCEs prepare for TOEIC.
Second, by also helping students focus on their listening-writing or ear-to-hand coordination.
We believe this is a fundamental exercise to acquire a language.
