Skill being helpful

There are different ways to be helpful in English, especially with colleagues and customers.
• Use friendly intonation to show you are happy to help.
• Make offers and suggestions: Would you like me to …? Shall I …? I’ll … if you want.
• Check the person is satisfied: Does that sound OK? Is there anything else I can help you with?

3 x PRACTICE SB page 93, exercise 4

1 Do the exercise as normal. To check answers, ask for a

show of hands according to who thinks each answer is
correct. Discuss as a class why each option is correct
or incorrect.
2 Ask sts to cover the exercise, then write the correct
answers on the board. Sts work in pairs and try to
remember the sentences. Set a time limit and do this
as a game. When the time is up, see which pair has
remembered the most answers correctly.
3 Ask sts in their pairs to write a second sentence to
follow on from each sentence in the exercise, using one
of the incorrect answers, e.g. I owe my parents $100.
I’ll pay them back next week. Pairs then work together
in groups of four. They read their second sentences
to each other in a random order. The other pair must
match each sentence with the correct sentence in the
exercise.
