Real English series: What's your job?

The two videos we are posting today in the Real English series have to do with the topic of work.

In the first video, the people interviewed answer the question What's your job?
Remember that we use the indefinite article in the answer: I'm a teacher; I'm a nurse.

The main difficulty of the video has to do with some of the jobs the passers-by mention, but at the end of the clip there is a quick revision of all the jobs that have come up during the interviews.

You can do an interactive activity on the Real English site here.

Intermediate students also have the option to watch a more complicated version of the video clip on the Real English site here.



In the second video passers-by answer a more elaborate version of the question 'What's your job?' What do you do for a living?

They also answer two follow-up questions:

Is that your dream job?
What would your dream job be if you had one?

Again the main difficulty has to do with the jobs some of the interviewees mention, but you can watch the same video with subtitles on the Real English site here together with some interactive exercises here.
