The importance of communication in teaching Business English, the main skills and their use in classes are being described in this article. The observations and remarks of the experiment in teaching Business English through simulation are discussed here. The basis of the course is fictitious companies invented by students and used to examine, and practice different language functions related to Business English. This way student’s imagination compensates for their lack of real - world business experience. It should be said that the results of the experiment were obviously positive. First of all, the students were really interested in acting as presidents or owners of some companies. Secondly, unexperienced students got acquainted with some important elements of the business world. Finally, a lot of grammar phenomena, expressions and new business words were revised. Mary C. Black’s suggestions were strictly followed and the reality was not dealt with. Students were dealing with English in a context that resembled reality.
