What Makes Our Lessons Different?
Teachers Save Time
Reduce lesson planning and gain freedom in the classroom. With
all students busy, the teacher can casually roam around the classroom
and offer assistance wherever needed.
Students Learn by Doing
Minutes after beginning each lesson, classes often become noisy.
At times, very noisy. Why? Students, in pairs or small groups,
actively engage in completing the lesson task. They use English
to learn English.
Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing
Oral communication is important. Listening and speaking have
priority in our lessons; students need to carefully listen to
each other. Reading is also important for the success of the
lessons. The amount of writing required varies.
Fun for Teachers & Students
We believe students learn better when having fun. Our lessons
range from silly to serious but each has a solid task-specific
educational goal including grammar usage, vocabulary building
and fluency improvement to name a few.

Paid LessonLesson Collection #5
- Lesson 12d
Time: 25+|
Level: HS~Adult|
Mode: Pair Work Activity
This lesson worksheet is particularly useful for Business English classes. As you know, businesses rely on abbreviations of all kinds. Many of these have become accepted internationally. In some cases, business people use abbreviations, but they may not know the actual words used to create the abbreviation.
This lesson is not only fun, it's really practical. Students will learn the meanings of commonly recognized abbreviations such as MBA, S&H, bcc, NA and CEO.
The worksheets are divided into four categories:
General
Correspondence
Titles and Groups
Delivery and Money
In pairs, groups or as a whole class, students try to identify the real English words which compromise very common abbreviations.
All of the abbreviations in this lesson are common and most will be recognized and understood by students.
