Speaking English Abroad
Remember last week when we introduced the new project - creating a funny conversation where you must try to solve a common tourist's problem in English? Well, I've found a couple short examples on YouTube that you can use for inspiration. (Remember to leave a comment, in English, below!!!)
1.) Problems with a hotel room. This one is a cartoon made for English learners so it is very short and fairly easy to follow.
2.) Problems in a restaurant. This clip is from Australia. They speak quite quickly, so listen carefully! The problem comes from the word 'rare' which, when used to describe steak means 'undercooked', but the customer thinks it means 'not common'. (Also a 'blue steak' means a steak that is pretty much raw!)
3.) Lastly, just for fun - here's the very funny Mr. Bean trying to fit in at a fancy restaurant! (You can use his behaviour for inspiration, but remember as this is Oral English, you must talk more than he does!)
