Job Interviews


(Job Interview : I want to learn (ESL) ESL Learning.com)

Talking about past experience of work
Talking about what we are good at
Talking about the skills we have
Talking about the skills we need to develop
Talking about why we want a job
Talking about ourselves as people
Asking questions about a job we are applying for
Knowing how to make a good impression

We need the words to talk about all of these things confidently.

1) Watch the video above. How well does Mary go?
2) Brainstorm the parts of the interview with your teacher

Homework 1 : Look at this site (Common Interview Questions) - ThoughtCo.com
Complete the cloze exercise I give you in class. Preparation for a role play next week


Talking about Ourselves

We read stories about the achievements of Helen Keller, Charles Blondin and Amy Johnson.

Here is the clip from the movie, "The Miracle Worker" (1962) about Ann Sullivan, a great teacher who taught her pupil, Helen Keller. Helen later became one of the most famous teachers in the world.

Here is the clip we watched. Helen learns to associate touch and language ( warning: very moving!)



Grammar : Relative Clauses

Ann Sullivan was a teacher who taught deaf and blind people.
A school is a place where people learn.
Braille is a written language which blind people read through touch.

Possessive (whose)

The film is about a teacher whose student learns to communicate through sign language and braille.

Homework 2 : Unit 17 Relative Clauses : Murphy (I will give you in class) / Relative Clauses - Defining and Possessive


Reading and Writing : FORMS (Centrelink)

Let's practice reading and writing a range of Centrelink related forms (in preparation for our assessment task in Week 3)

Let's look at the first one or two pages of this Real Estate Details Form

Other Centrelink forms you can download

Horrible Housework

Level 1 and 2: Watch the video. What can we do to clean up this house? Finish the sentences ...

Empty ___ ________.

_____ up the bedroom.

Scrub the ______ bowl.

Get ___ __ the Kittens.

___ away the things in the kitchen.

Throw ___ the old computers.

_____ the bath!

(Call in the health inspectors?)


Level 3 : Watch this video. How do you feel about this messy house? Who does the owner blame for most of the mess? Do you think Cary's problems are funny or serious?



Speaking Exercise : Giving Opinions

Here are some opinions by others who watched the video:

"it is the parents responsibility to keep a safe enviroment for the kids and set a good example."

"lots of people have kids and thier homes are nothing close to this. I'm surprise she still has her kids."

"How dare you say her kids should be taken away from her! ... some people just need help in their lives, and a gentle push in the right direction. Depression is a sad thing to live with it can destroy families. She obviously got so low she stopped functioning properly."



Do you agree with these opinions? Do you feel sorry for Cary? What would you do to help her? Where would you start?

Phone in your answers to ipadio.com - use the 1800 number and codes I gave you in class.
