When you think about improving your writing in English, especially business writing, you probably think about studying lots of rules, and memorising specific phrases, and complicated vocabulary.

But recently I spoke to Ellen Jovin who’s been writing professionally and teaching professionals how to write for more than 20 years, and in this interview you’ll discover that good business writing isn’t about language, it’s about people.

Ellen demonstrates how to turn basic English into business English for emails, proposal, or presentations with simple tips that focus on the human being at the other end.
