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

Strength and Weakness Adjectives - TV - Exercise and debate
This one starts the same way as my exercises for SWOT analysis and the job-search worksheets but it also has a debate at the end with debating cards included. Good practice for students of business English or geeks that love TV shows. There is an answer key for the final mix and match exercise but everything is pretty subjective. Be prepared to fie...

Strengths and Weaknesses - Appliances: Hyphenated Adjectives
A short worksheet with technology as the main theme but with hyphenated adjectives, positive, neutral, and negative, as the vocab and grammar practice backdrop. There are several ways on how to teach this, pre-teaching the vocab, or reading aloud and fielding question on the vocab. Perhaps a few rules on how to use hyphens, too. And finally, pair w...

Strengths and Weaknesses - Food Adjectives
A worksheet about food adjectives for upper-intermediate levels. A good, robust debate is advisable afterwards. I did this in a bit of a rush, so please let me know if there are any mistakes.

Strengths and Weaknesses - Medical Appliances
Some adjectives that are often applied to technology. Using positive, neutral or negative adjectives, students need to choose which appliances they should buy from cheaper manufacturers to substitute their usual suppliers. A debate can be done at the end on the choices. If you have people that work in the medical industry, particularly in the sales...

Suburban Landscape Adjectives
A small exercise about adjectives used to describe suburban landscapes. The students should read the list of adjectives aloud, asking questions about the vocabulary they don�t know. They then apply two neutral/positive adjectives and two negative adjectives to the landscapes in the boxes. After that is done, they need to read out the real estate lo...

Swindon Magic Roundabout: CAE reading practice
A small reading exercise with answers for students that are struggling with the preparation for the CAE course. This reading is broken down a little at first with a mix-and-match exercise. It then has some typical CAE standard questions to help the student understand what is required.

SWOT Analysis - Company Adjectives - Business English Worksheet
Having to teach business English on the subject of SWOT analysis can be as boring as hell. So, I did a little worksheet on company personalities/cultures to help the students along. I�ve tried it and it works. They seemed to enjoy it and were quite motivated during the exercise. Perhaps not everybody�s cup of tea though.

SWOT Analysis 2 - Business English Vocab and Debate
The first SWOT analysis worksheet went down pretty well, as did the TV SWOT analysis and debate, so I did another. This time with a debate at the end. The debate latter is practically the same as the TV debate, though. I�ll change it one day soon when things aren�t so hectic, but if you have done the other ones before. It should work well enough.

Synonym Adjective Snap 1
This game can only be played with even numbers. If you have a group of odd numbers then you should join in the game to make up the numbers. Print out the cards and laminate. For a game of two players just give them a pack of 1 colour (yellow or red) each. Groups of four shouldn�t be a problem. Players put their cards in front of them fa...
