I’m Alex Villarreal with the VOA Special English Economics Report, from voaspecialenglish.com | http Business is the most popular subject for international students in the United States. At last count, twenty-one percent of foreign students at American colleges and universities were studying business and management. The Institute of International Education in New York says engineering is the second most popular field, in case you were wondering.Thomas Cosse is a professor of marketing and business at the University of Richmond in Virginia. He says international students who want to study business need to have good English skills — and not just to study at his school.But the world has more non-native speakers of English than native speakers. As a result, Americans working with foreign companies may need to learn some new English skills themselves. At the University of Richmond, teams of graduate students work with companies seeking to enter the American market. The students learn about writing market entry studies.

Facebook.com – Become a Fan! Twitter.com – Follow Us! She messed up again, but she’s still good. Those are the words of Hannah Montana and we’ve got the whole scoop up next. Hey guys – Joslyn Davis here at our ClevverTV headquarters with scoop on Miley’s alter-ego, Hannah Montana. A brand new music video for the last season of the Disney hit that stars Miley, which is now being called Hannah Montana Forever, features HM’s song “I’m Still Good.” The lyrics basically say that she’s messed up again, but she’s still good. Sometimes she slips up, she sings, but she’s trying to be her best. The song has a great message, especially for her younger fans that might not be quite old enough to tune in to see Miley Cyrus’ new music videos. But this song and video from Hannah Montana are both just serving as reminders that the long-lived series is almost over. So are you guys sad? Or excited to see what’s next for the teen star? Hit the comments section to let us know!

Thanks so much for watching. I’m Joslyn Davis, see you next time!

While the English summer is slowly drawing to an end, other European countries continue to be bathed in sunshine, with a whole host of cultural and artistic events still to come before the clocks go back.

If you haven’t yet managed to get away for a summer break, now is the perfect opportunity to soak up those last rays of late-summer sun and take in some of the wonderful and diverse cultural events that Europe has to offer. Here are just a few of the events that lie in store over the next couple of months.

Schwarzenberg in Austria hosts a major chamber music festival from 27 August-12 September, attracting some of the world’s leading artists. Bernarda Fink, Ian Bostridge, Magdalena Kozena and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau all appear at this year’s edition, which will take place at the purpose-built Angelika Kauffmann Hall.

Opera lovers should head to Verona in Italy, where the world-renowned Arena festival is well under way. Running until 29 August, this year’s event features a guest performance by veteran performer Maria Guleghina, in Franco Zeffirelli’s Turandot. Festival-goers will also be treated to performances of Madama Butterfly and Carmen, among others.

Greece’s Athens and Epidauros festival, running until 12 September, offers a spectacular celebration of contemporary and classical arts. This year’s edition features a new Greek staging of the opera Parsifal, as well as a French version of A Streetcar Named Desire and a performance by the New York City Ballet.

Opera-lovers in for a treat if they make the journey to Bayreuth in Germany, where the legendary Wagner opera festival runs until 28 August. The event, organised by Wagner’s two great-granddaughters, features a performance of Lohengrin, as well as Parsifal, starring bright young opera talent Christopher Ventris.

Finally, Lucerne in Switzerland hosts one of the world’s greatest classical music festivals, with a programme that stretches until 18 September. The festival is a who’s who of classical musicians, with conductors Claudio Abbado and Simon Rattle, violinists Frank Peter Zimmermann and Anne-Sophie Mutter and pianists András Schiff and Helene Grimaud all featuring. Vienna Philharmonic and San Francisco Symphony orchestra also appear in what is sure to be a fantastic event, set to the backdrop of Lucerne’s beautiful lakes and mountains.
