Introduction
Ready for Work has been designed to help pre-intermediate level students prepare for careers in the workplace today. It is based on the authors’ original teaching materials that have been used in actual classrooms extensively with proven success for many years. It encompasses the prerequisite skills that students need for professional situations, including resume and cover letter writing, job interviews, email writing, and presentations.
Ready for Work offers essential background knowledge, skills, functional language, and models with tasks and hands-on exercises for students. It utilizes a step-by-step approach. Each chapter starts with an opener presenting the objectives of the chapter and “bite-sized” warm-up activities to prepare students for the chapter. This is then followed by a reading passage and models where students will be guided to explore and analyze the models. Towards the end of each chapter, students will work on hands-on activities using what they have learned in the chapter.
Since effective communication requires more than just language proficiency and skills, each chapter includes a Culture Note to develop students’ understanding of a particular aspect of cultural differences. Additionally, the Expert Advice section aims to provide students with more tips and advice which they can consider in the given professional situation.
