In this task, you will talk about what you do (or will do) in your vocational field. If you don’t know the right words, don’t worry! You can ask me for help to learn new vocabulary. Follow the steps below:

  - For example:
"I’m studying plumbing, and I will install and fix pipes."

Step 2: Describe a Task

Tell me about one thing you do or will do at work. If you’re not sure how to explain it in English, ask for help using these prompts:

  - "What’s the word for [tool/task]?"

For example:

  - "What’s the word for [tool or task] in my work?"

For example:

Step 4: Talk About Tools or Skills

Explain what tools or skills you use in your job. Ask for vocabulary if you’re unsure.

For example:

  - "I use a wrench to fix pipes."

Step 5: Review and Practice

After the conversation, review the new words you’ve learned. You can practice with me again by asking:
