Teaching of a strategic planning course involves information components in the English language, related to general English and English for specific purposes. In this context, teaching materials, business websites, academic journals, databases and evaluations require business English. The main objective of the research is to know the perception of a sample of undergraduate students from a faculty in Peru, regarding the use of business English in learning the strategic planning course. The methodology uses a quantitative and qualitative approach, the sample includes former students of the course, from five consecutive academic semesters. For the fieldwork, a measurement instrument based on Bloom's revised taxonomy was designed and validated, and the reliability of this instrument was also measured. The results reveal that students perceive the use of business English in their learning positively.
