"An excellent initiative. Extremely well designed...has a clean, simple, colourful and original look. I and other technical duffers will learn a lot but experienced internet users will also find the references, teaching ideas, and sources of material very useful too."

BEST BUY - ELT Journal, April 2005

 

"30 solid lessons provoke ideas and are easily adapatable ot cater for the changing nature of websites. There is plenty to dip into here and for anyone teaching at the more specialist end of the business English spectrum it is a godsend. If you don't teach business English, don't be put off. It is by far the most useful book on the topic of the internet and ELT that I have surfed, browsed and bookmarked to date."

English Teaching Professional 

 

"Consistent approach to the presentation and practice of the language... the learning tasks are straightforward with clear instructions.. the vocabulary is rich and encourages students to learn collocations.  Technical English is not only an extremely professional textbook in its own right. It should also be a source of inspiration for teachers wishing to develop further materials to meet the particular needs of their specialist learners.  Excellent new resource book which will appeal to a wide range of specialist learners. The book is ideal too for teachers and students who need a practical overview of technical English."
Besig Business Issues

"Clearly written and well-designed, witha good balance between text and photographs...An attractive guide for any Business English teaching centre's resources shelf. A companion website provides extra material and downloadable PDFs of some of the material in the book.  All in all, a very welcome resource book."

IATEFL CALL Review, Journal of the Computer SIG

 

"Overall, I was very impressed with this book and felt a variety of users would find help with it.  It would be a wise investment for staffrooms filled with general purpose English teaching, but obviously it will provide much more depth for its intended audience of teachers dealing with business matters."

IATEFL Issues

 

"The first handbook good enough to get business English teachers online.
 …the first to go beyond generalities and apply use of the web to a specific and expanding area of ELT. An impressive book that would be a valuable addition to the staffroom bookshelf for business English teachers of all levels... - and also for ELT generalists."

EL Gazette

 

"If you are a business English teacher, this book is a highly welcome resource that provides everything needed to successfully include the Internet into lesson plans."

ESL Guide Review

 

"An excellent and enjoyable resource - I'll bet it wouldn't take most people more than 3 minutes to find something in it they could use tomorrow in class."
