Workshops
This workshop is designed for individuals who wish to practice phoning and receiving phone calls with /from employers. The goal is to make it easier for clients to understand what an employer may say on the phone. Clients will be requested to bring an actual job posting and their resumé. There will be time to learn and practice the basic vocabulary related to those jobs in English. The facilitator will help the client practice phone etiquette and common phrases used in phone calls in English. The clients will practice answering questions of a simulated interview in English face-to-face with the facilitator. Then the clients and the facilitator will each take a walkie-talkie, go to separate rooms and do the interview again. The facilitator will give feedback at each step. Clients will leave the workshop with a more accurate understanding of what an employer could ask them over the phone.
