As well the  article investigates the  results of empirical research on team-based learning application in other European Union universities by Business English teachers from Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Italy, Spain, Greece and France. Team-based learning in teaching Business English proved to be a successful tool as it assisted to academic success in discipline, communication and understanding of the  business environment peculiarities through teamwork and critical thinking and majority of students gave positive feedback. The  research demonstrated that team-based learning gives more freedom and authorizes students to be more responsible for their own studies and knowledge as the process involves both individual work and teamwork and the contribution to the  team is significantly important there. Self-determination in studies leads to an academic success towards life-long competences and proves team-based learning approach to be a  useful and transformative tool for teaching Business English.
