Quick Work Elementary: Teacher's Book (Paperback)

This three-level short course in business English is aimed at busy adult professionals. It can be used either as a short, intensive one-week course, or for extensive or modular courses spread out over several weeks. The short, pacy course is practical, flexible, and easily accessible to both students and teachers. It has a distinctive task-centred approach, with the aim of developing key business-related skills and language. The language syllabus is selective - language is addressed on a need-to-know basis in the student's book, with a more systematic review of grammar in the workbook. Each of the five units covers key areas such as dealing with people, participating in meetings, exchanging information and problem-solving. The principal focus is on developing students' speaking and listening skills. Each unit is divided into five or six sub-sections, which all end with a practical, work-related output task. There is a more substantial output activity at the end of the unit. Learners are encouraged to draw on their existing skills, knowledge, and experience of the workplace to carry out these tasks. Contexts are introduced by up-to-date material from a variety of authentic sources.
