I agree with Ms. Hollet, business talk should take into account the human element. As a teacher I have met different students, mainly executives , who are really worried about learning specific words but once they are in touch with foreign partners, they realize of the importance of sharing ordinary experiences with others. Then it becomes more important to talk about their own interests to make a real and good conversation. Teachers have to work hard to make confident students.
