Effective Error Correction and Language Improvement in Business Communication Teaching

Considering the impact of ESP studies at all academic levels, as well as my belief that language learning is beyond a simple process input and intake of linguistic information, I centered my present approach on effective forms of error correction in communication and on developing language improvement, as well as improving social skills, as featured by my business communication teaching experience. The spoken dimension of language and the communicational competence, although of extreme importance in contemporary world, seem to have enjoyed less attention from theorists. In the present article I stress the importance of offering our students a tailored form of teaching, which would enable them to play an active role and to acquire a real understanding of error correction in order to offer them the possibility to continue studying on their own and to support their independent learning ability.
