Unit 9: English for Specific Purposes, Vocational Language

​Welcome to Let's Teach English. This series offers free online training for English language educators worldwide. Voice of America and the University of Oregon are partners on this project.    Summary In this lesson, students work on an independent project. Each student researches a job and creates  an interview dialog for someone trying to get that job. During class, the students practice their interview role-plays with one another.  Then, they perform them with partners for other students in a small group. As the first pair is doing their role play, the teacher stops to ask them to predict what the next question will be. Predicting  is a learning strategy that can help academically as well as in a real-life situation, such as a job interview. They also give each other feedback, using the checklist. Large classes can still do this type of speaking activity by performing in pairs and small groups.   Teacher Preparation Video Transcript This episode shows a model of teaching English for Specific Purposes and vocational use of English.
