Be accurate! Abacus' course is the first On-Line Spoken English Grammar
course. Traditional Grammar courses are designed to help learners
develop their written language skills. Abacus content designers have
created a course that will help learners focus on grammar that can help
them develop their spoken language skills. There is an emphasis on
developing the discoursal (conversational) aspects of spoken English.
There is a lot of work on appropriacy and politeness strategies of
spoken English. Again, exercises are presented in order of difficulty,
easy to advanced. The exercises have been taken from all of the modules
(Meetings, Negotiating, Presentations and Telephoning) in the Let's Do
Business series. Learn how to be polite, handle hostile situations and
make a positive impression.
