Eposide 4 - Teaching Business English: Insights and Advice

This episode of The English Podcast dives into the world of teaching Business English with insights from experienced TEFL teacher Carl. Whether you're a seasoned English teacher or just starting out, this episode offers valuable information on what sets Business English apart and how to approach it effectively. Carl shares his experience teaching Business English in various contexts, from a university in Vietnam training real estate agents to one-on-one lessons in Japan for trade fair presentations. He emphasizes that while the structure of a Business English lesson isn't wildly different from a general English lesson, the content is key. A significant portion of the episode focuses on the importance of the needs analysis. Carl explains the necessity of understanding the wants of the company paying for the lessons, the needs of the students to achieve those wants, and the lacks in their current English proficiency that need to be addressed. He highlights the delicate balance of keeping both the paying client and the students happy. The episode also covers what you typically teach in Business English, with a focus on vocabulary and functions (the purpose of a phrase, like requesting or offering) rather than just grammar. The concept of formality of language and how it evolves in business communication is also discussed. For those interested in getting started, Carl provides advice on how to find Business English students, including looking for job vacancies advertised as "Business English teacher" or "professional development teacher" on websites like TEFL Org and cold emailing companies. He cautions against going into Business English blind and emphasizes the need for preparation. The episode touches on the rise of teaching Business English online, noting the openness of business professionals to this format. Carl suggests utilizing authentic materials like articles from The Economist and other business publications. Finally, Carl addresses common questions about the qualifications needed, charging rates, and the advantages of teaching Business English, such as the interesting content and the potential for building long-lasting connections with students. He also discusses some of the challenges, such as managing different levels within a class. Whether you're curious about exploring a new avenue in your English teaching career or simply interested in the specific demands of professional English communication, this episode provides a comprehensive overview of the key aspects of teaching Business English.

Understanding Grammar - Syntax and Morphology

This podcast episode offers a concise overview of fundamental grammar concepts discussed in a YouTube video by Mahmoud Mokhtar [https://youtu.be/NCNZf2NUn2M]. It delves into the two main components of grammar: morphology and syntax . Morphology, the study of word structure and the smallest meaningful units called morphemes, is explained using examples like "unbreakable". The episode then covers syntax, focusing on how words combine to form meaningful sentences. It highlights that both morphology and syntax work together to create meaning in language, with their relative importance varying between languages like Latin and English. This short episode is a helpful refresher on basic grammar principles derived from the YouTube discussion.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
