Teaching Business English via italki - italki experience - 2024Most of my career - in fact, for over 35 years - I actually worked in business. My roles included senior management positions within a variety of businesses - from start-ups to FTSE-100 listed blue-chip corporations. As such, my experience of the use of English in a business context actually comes from a use of the language in real situations - namely: meetings, presentations, negotiations, interviews; and interaction with colleagues and customers. Over 800 business English lessons on italki.

Mark’s lesson structure is progressive and every lesson always proceed from elementary to the profound. The atmosphere is quite relaxed and he summarized the learning points after every class and that helps consolidate knowledge a lot. He is a teacher worth cooperating with for a long time.
