About This Course

Finance & Accounting Professionals need to communicate in English on a daily basis, and if you work with the US or live and work in the US, it’s important that everyone understand you clearly. It can hurt your credibility, confidence, and ability to do your job if people either misunderstand you or misinterpret what you say. In order to be clear in American English, you’ll want to master the key components of the language.

Now that you have completed the first seven courses in this series, you are ready to apply what you have learned to everyday words you use when you do your job.

This course focuses the vocabulary for finance & accounting: how to pronounce words, common expressions, how to practice and make sure you are speaking clearly in your daily speaking activities. You’ll use the words you need to use every day in exercises that will help you practice and continue to grow your vocabulary in context.

This course uses finance & accounting vocabulary so that when you learn the concepts of English, you’ll also learn to say the words that come up for you every day at work.
