ATTENTION

HOTEL ENGLISH TEACHERS

Do you need lesson plans for your new job at a luxury resort?

(or would you rather just hope the the materials that

the hotel provides is adequate?)

Do you want to save yourself countless hours to

enjoy the things you really like?

(or would you rather spend all your free time doing research

in books and on the Internet preparing for your next class?)

Would you like to go into a job interview at a luxury

hotel better prepared than other job applicants?

(or would you rather just go into the interview and hope for the best?)

       Then Hotel and Resort English

is just what you need!

Hotel and Resort English contains easy to use, ready made

lesson plans specifically geared towards the hotel industry. Each

lesson plan covers a specific function that hotel staff are likely to

encounter on a daily basis.

In addition, each lesson plan is tailored for specific hotel staff.

As you know, a large hotel employs a variety of staff- such as

front desk clerks, bellmen, maids, maintenance staff, waiters,

chefs, spa staff, gym staff, etc. The various staff have differing

roles within the hotel and their English needs are different.

The things a waiter would say to a guest when interacting with

them is very different than what a front desk staff would say.

Because of this- the exercises, sample dialogues, and role

play activities in Hotel and Resort English are geared to

meet the specific language needs of the staff in the situations

they would likely encounter. 

All the staff may use similar English functions, but the

vocabulary used in their various roles and situations may

be very different.

What are functions?

Functions are simply specific situations or circumstances that speakers may face when interacting with others- such as greetings, asking for a order, or giving directions. Functions offer students set sentence and grammatical structures, phrases, and vocabulary to use that are specific to the different functions.

Why is this important?

Because they allow students to learn usable English that can be applied immediately when interacting with guests. Functions can be easily adapted to cover any number of situations that a student or hotel employee may encounter.

How do functions differ from traditionally English lessons?

Traditional English lessons may focus on sentence structure, word order, verb usage, vocabulary use and development, and rules of use for the various parts of speech. Granted, all these are needed and useful, but not necessarily easily transferred to actual usage to improve and facilitate communication.

What functions are included?

                        Greeting Guests                   Dealing with Requests

                        Asking for Permission           Problems and Complaints

                        Making Comparisons            Compliments

                        Offering help and Advise        Opinions

You are probably thinking...

"Can't I find free lesson plans on the internet?

Why should I pay for them?"

            Sure, there are hundreds of sites on the Internet that have

              lesson plans.

             to find just the right materials.
