Summary/Abstract: Selecting materials for teaching Business English is a crucial act, but the aim of this paper is not that of discussing whether we should use authentic or "doctored" texts. It presents several ideas, which have emerged, from personal experience and from the literature on the subject. The findings are suggestions and comments, rather than solutions. The article is intended to provide information regarding the steps of this so called "trip" of any Business English teacher, to the final destination of providing appropriate materials for students who study different fields of business. According to the field of business they study, it is in their interest for the Business English teacher to develop their linguistic and communicational skills and competencies.
