Business German

Two cassettes are available to supplement the core text. Each cassette runs for approxiately 40 minutes, and listeners can, if they wish, locate the recorded exercise in the book. Purchasers of the Business German text who later feel they would like to practise their spoken German will find that the cassettes will provide an excellent back up. In addition, lecturers who wish to recommend the text to their students will find that the cassettes are ideal for group use. This is a comprehensive language learning package for business executives and students. The package includes the Business German text, which combines language learning with a background in doing business in Germany and two C40 cassettes which feature key vocabulary building exercises in the text. The cassettes are intended to help language learners practise oral and aural skills, while the book reinforces reading and comprehension skills. An English presenter welcomes the listener, explains how to use the cassettes, announces each unit and introduces the native speakers. They then take over and present the dialogues, articles and other comprehension passages, which relate to specific units in the book. Questions and exercises feature immediately afterwards with a short time allowed for the listener to respond. Purchasers of the Business German text who later feel they would like to practise their spoken German can purchase the cassettes separately. These will provide an excellent back up to the book. In addition, lecturers who wish to recommend the text to their students will find that the cassettes are ideal for group use (sample cassette available).
