This course is split into five main parts as follows:

2. Business chat - looking at current (January 2023) Business Events and discussing the vocabulary. We also use cartoons for this.

3. Films. We look at two films - and see interviews with the actors. These can then be further discussed in the Q/A

4. Film clips (about 20 seconds each) Here you are set tasks based on the films - all of which are in a business situation

5. Business cartoons. You are shown a cartoon and asked to interpret the business situation.

These cartoons have been especially commissioned for this course! They were created ONLY for this course!

You are also invited - and offered a reward - if you can identify the various portraits of Business Leaders.

So, this course has many different sections to it - many you will never have come across before.
