Take A Look Inside
Many ESL students cringe when they have to use English on the phone. It is no doubt one of the biggest challenges they face. While on the phone, neither person can rely on those all important visual clues that tell you how a person is feeling, whether or not a person is following along and so on. The Grab Bag of Telephone will help students gain confidence in using the telephone.
Your students will practise answering the phone, calling for information, taking messages and leaving messages when you use The Grab Bag of Telephone. They will also practise using the language structures they need to communicate effectively. The next time a phone rings, your students will answer it with confidence!
