Learning professional English

English is the international language of business, the language of bleisure (business + leisure) travels, the language in which most of the contents on the Internet are written, the official language of international organizations… to put it in a nutshell: English is the lingua franca, the most popular second language spoken in the world. As a consequence, English is considered globally as the bridge language in areas such as: accounting, commerce, e-commerce, finance, HR, manufacturing, marketing, sales, trade, and so on.


Therefore, nowadays, more and more learners have some special needs and must develop some specific skills which are not completely fulfilled in General English courses. Among the needs of business professionals, we can mention: meetings, negotiations, emails, presentations, phone calls, conference calls, business travels, communication with foreign headquarters and subsidiaries, comprehension of multiple accents, etc. Keeping all this in mind, and being aware that more and more companies need their staff to become multi-lingual, GlobalExam has designed a Business course online. Business is becoming increasingly important, so people who do not have an excellent command of it risk to lose great opportunities to advance their career.

Your boss makes constant remarks about the emails you write in English, and that is really worrying you? Are you afraid of answering the phone when the client is a native speaker of English? You should go into action so as to make no more errors when writing formal emails and improve all the required English skills of a business professional.

Learning Business online is one of the best investments you can make with your time. Of course, there will be moments when you might wonder, “why do I keep making the same mistakes?” And consequently, sometimes, you might certainly feel that the process is slower than you thought. But remember: Staying motivated is the key to success, and that is not a secret, it is pure common sense. If you feed your fears with frustration, anger and insecurity, you just won’t attempt to improve your skills. Instead, you will end up assuming you are not good at English and you will remove yourself from the challenge of learning. So, think about the goals you want to achieve, tell yourself that getting Business proficiency will definitely make your work life easier. Picture yourself being able to effectively communicate with customers, manufacturers and stakeholders abroad, and view yourself in a positive light because there will be no more frustrating barriers to your success. Here in GlobalExam we are aware of the importance of motivation, that is why we have prepared 10 tips to help you focus on your progress and develop self-confidence when learning English online.

Without marketing, sales might decline and your company will be likely to close down.

So, how about using the official business language today, English, as an extra tool to maintain demand, competition and reputation?


Engage international customers by providing fresh relevant content in English about your products and your business as well.

So, communicating effectively will avoid misunderstandings and build more solid confidence and trust.
