Practical: Arriving In London

This is the first in a series of six Practical English lessons (one every other File) that teach Sts functional language to help them “survive” in English in travel and social situations. There is a storyline based on two characters, Rob Walker, a British journalist who works for a magazine called London 24seven , and Jenny Zielinski, who works in the NY office of the same magazine and who is on a work trip to London. Sts meet them for the first time in this lesson, where Jenny arrives in the UK and checks into a hotel. The main focus of this lesson is on hotel vocabulary and checking into a hotel. You might want to point out to Sts that in the You Say section of the lessons, they will be listening and then repeating what the people say. They will hear both British and American accents, but they do not need to copy the accents exactly. These lessons can be used with Class DVD , iTools , or Class Audio (audio only).
