Speaking Effectively provides the trainer with a business English book which can be used as supplementary material or as the basis for a short course at the lower-intermediate level to develop fluency and language competence. All of the 14 units are short, easy-to-use and do not require much preparation on the part of the teacher. The three case studies interspersed throughout the book allow the learner the opportunity to use the language acquired in the preceding units in more extended speaking activities. Speaking Effectively is accompanied by a cassette with the tapescripts in the back of the book.
