Teaching Grammar for Business Essays
Its fairly easy these days to access the materials you need to teach students how to plan essays, write introductions or conclusions, develop paragraphs or make citations – but rather more difficult to find materials that focus specifically on the key grammar that your students require (often at a sentence level) for the three fundamental processes of academic business writing: being objective, building information, and connecting ideas. This course seeks to fill that gap. By the time you have finished, you will have the classroom techniques and all the materials you need to teach, within a business context, the most relevant aspects of these 12 features: cautious language, defining language, passives, impersonal subjects, noun phrases, relative clauses, verb clauses, linkers, conditionals, cause and effect, comparison and cohesion/signposting. After a brief introduction, describing the rationale for the course and how it works in detail, two or three of the 12 items above are covered in each of the next five sections of the course, under these headings: Being objective in a business essay: grammar for functionsBeing objective in a business essay: key grammar itemsBuilding information in a business essayConnecting ideas in a business essay: key grammar itemsConnecting ideas in a business essay: grammar for functionsEach of the main lectures acts like a suggested lesson plan. What I do is to take you through the stages of the lesson, giving you all the material that you need on the accompanying slides, or pages as I call them, including examples, exercises with answers, lists of key language, and activities for your students. (With longer exercises and activities I show you the beginning, and you can download the rest in the lesson planning resources at the end of each lecture.)There are also printable revision worksheets for your students at the end of each section. So you dont need to copy anything down as you watch, in fact, because all of the material you see on the pages (as well as the endings to longer exercises and activities ) is available in thedownloadable, adaptable lesson planning resources for you to use in a way that suits your own physical or online classroom: copying key language onto a whiteboard, for example, or printing it off for your students, or displaying it by computer. As you progress through the course, you can use the knowledge you gain in three immediate ways:1) check your own understanding of the grammar items by trying the student exercises that you see on the slides (or their longer versions in the resources) before you look at the answers;2) when you’ve watched an individual lecture, use the resources to create a lesson plan that will work for your students;3) try teaching some of the items to your students before you complete the course – the experience you gain may be helpful when you come to watch the next new lecture. Please note:1) this course focuses exclusively on students grammatical control, often at a sentence level. It doesnt deal with study skills or essay development in general.2) All of the material is set within a modern business context, covering areas such as human resources, marketing and finance.
