Individual Task, page 35, Daiana Corvalan

Step 1

Look at newspaper advertisements applying for a job. Identify key words  (vocabulary related to jobs)

Step 2

Read an applying e-mail in response to one of the previous advertisement. Write an e-mail using the same model but use your personal information.

Step 3

Read the different applying e-mails in response to the job advertisements then match the e-mails with the newspapers ads.

Step 4

Re-read the e-mails and identify the style (formal or informal) and use cue words to write sentences (responsible,tidy, punctual, outgoing, hardworking)

Step 5

Information gap role play. Student A plays the part of a potential employer who is looking for a new assistant and student B and C apply to the same interview.

Step 6

In groups, some students will create 'companies'. They will describe basic information about the company they work for and what kind of employee they are looking for. The rest of the class will have to write their CV, and then move around the classroom to have interviews with the different companies.
