B1 – Talking About Jobs: Responsibilities, Skills and Challenges

A B1-level jobs speaking ESL lesson focused on describing responsibilities, skills, and the pros and cons of different jobs. Based on the video A Day in the Life of a Server, students analyse how a worker talks about her role, identify useful phrases, and practise using them in structured speaking tasks. The lesson includes prediction, listening for gist and detail, language analysis, controlled interview practice, role-play, and a final discussion on jobs and preferences. Clear, practical, and engaging, this lesson helps students build confidence in speaking about jobs in real-life situations.
