A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Review job titles and I work as / I would like to be. Students without employment can describe study, an imagined role or a future job.
- Read the prompts and identify what each asks. Model one full-sentence response, then keep page 2 for checking after learners attempt their own answers.
- Answer the job and experience questions, then develop a reason for a future-job preference.
- Optionally compare two dream jobs using the learners' written reasons.
Support and extension
Do not require disclosure of relatives' employment or income. The questions include past experience and hypothetical choices, not just present routines. For support, provide a few sentence starters or let learners rehearse orally first. Use the models to notice useful language while preserving each learner's own meaning.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
