Meanwhile, learners can further benefit from reading some business books or attending business courses to obtain related knowledge. This can help them understand better how to use business English expressions. Books about import and export practice are preferable, while books concerning marketing, finance, business laws, etc. are useful in the study of business English.
Finally, if conditions permit, business English learners may apply what they have learned to practice in companies or organizations. Through practice, they can gain experience and also strengthen and improve their business English.
