I�m a Brit living in Spain teaching English because that�s all I could find over here. I like it though. I also upload my worksheets on ISL Collective, normally a day or two after I have done so here. br You can order my books by pasting this into the browser: https://www.amazon.es/Dale-Bates/e/B08QD5M5PQ?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1613573760&sr=8-1

What does it mean? 2
The second of my quizzes for students that speak Romance languages. Some false friends and some cognates as well as some of the more mundane but not so well-known words in common usage. Divide students into small teams and award each team a point for the right answer. Answer key provided. Have fun!

Fatboy: A reading
I wrote this a few years back because I didn�t like the way the other kids kept calling one of their number "Gordito" and they never took any notice when I told them it was rude.

Heteronym Reading Exercise
Heteronyms are words that are written the same but pronounced differently and have different meanings. Here is a little worksheet that I�ve used for a few years with my advanced groups to test their pronunciation.

Weather idioms exercise with key
A small cloze exercise for advanced students complete with key and fully editable. Something I did a few years ago and it has been sitting on my PC doing nothing ever since. Not sure if some of the expressions are different the other side of the pond or not. You might need to check.

IT Crowd S2 Episode 1 Work outing
A question list for use with Series 2 Episode 1 of the IT Crowd. I�ve seen a couple of excellent worksheets for this very episode, by the way, but my students like big question lists to see how many they can answer.

Real Estate Worksheet
I�ve been using this for about 10 years now and it�s a pretty flexible little worksheet. I use it to accompany a chapter we have to do with renting flats and houses. I normally start by going through the Estate agent�s key on the second page and then move to the first page which is used as a reading (for correcting pronunciation etc.) I then field ...
