Summary/Abstract: Teaching ESP presents its unique set of challenges, as it combines more general ELT issues with some very specific ones. Among the governing principles of teaching at any level are identifying learners’ needs, adapting teaching materials, designing comprehensible lessons and choosing relevant assessment methods. The key point to consider, however, is the teacher’s ability to adapt to the different learning circumstances. This paper discusses the practical aspects of adapting lesson delivery in the Business English classroom by looking at the everyday interactions with our undergraduate students at the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration. It will show that while adapting lesson delivery is a continuous process, a new, valuable perspective has been added through the recent switch to online activities, which is definitely worth exploring further.
