In this video based lesson, students watch 3 short clips of Javier Bardem answering typical ‘getting to know you’ questions (eg where did you grow up? what do you do? how did you learn English?’) before answering the questions themselves in pairs.

Javier Bardem has a fantastic level of English, but even he makes few slip ups, slip ups that even your high level students still make. (How many times have you corrected, ‘I listen music’?). Students will be challenged to correct these, before going on to practice ‘so and ’such’, followed by even more speaking!

This is a great way to get to know your class. It’s perfect for any B2 group, or a First Certificate preparation course, as they’ll practise questions typical to part 1 of the FCE speaking exam, as well as part 4 of the Use of English paper.
