International Express Intermediate

International Express Intermediate – Alastair Lane

International Express Intermediate, from Oxford University Press, is a business-oriented English course for adult professionals who want to communicate more confidently and effectively at work and while traveling.

Designed for learners who already have a solid foundation in English, the intermediate level helps students extend their range of grammar and vocabulary, improve fluency and develop the skills they need in international professional environments. Topics reflect the realities of working life, including company structures, projects, business travel, presentations, negotiations, customer service, technology and cultural differences in business.

Each unit follows a clear structure that combines grammar review and practice with vocabulary building, pronunciation work and communication activities. A strong emphasis on functional language prepares learners for practical situations such as meetings, telephone calls, emails, giving opinions, making suggestions and socializing with colleagues and clients. Authentic-style texts and listening materials expose students to the kind of English used in real international workplaces.

The course is well suited to the needs of busy adults, whether studying in company programs, language schools or one-to-one lessons, and it supports self-study through review sections and reference material.

Practical, professional and engaging, International Express Intermediate is an excellent choice for adult learners and teachers who want a reliable course that builds both language accuracy and real-world communication skills for global business.
