Introduction

Welcome to today's English as a Second Language class! In today's lesson, we'll be learning about interviews. But before we dive into the technical aspects, let's take a moment to get to know each other.

Activity

For this exercise, I'd like you all to stand up and find a partner. Interview each other for a few minutes, asking questions such as:

• What is your name?
• Where are you from?
• What are your hobbies?
• Have you ever had a job interview? If so, can you tell me about it?

After a few minutes, please switch partners and repeat the process. Get to know as many people in the class as you can!

Discussion

Now that we've all had the chance to talk to each other, let's come back together as a class and share what we've learned. Did you meet anyone with common interests or experiences? Did anyone have a particularly interesting or amusing story to share?

This exercise serves to not only break the ice, but also to practice our English communication skills and prepare us for future job interviews. Let's continue the lesson with this newfound confidence in speaking to each other.

Conclusion

Great job, everyone! Take a quick break, stretch your legs, and come back ready to learn about the technical aspects of interviews.
