That's English! - Module 6 - unit 6: First Impressions

Last week we worked with this topic and here you are some general questions we used in class:
  • Do you think everybody makes a good or bad first impression? 
  • What are the best ways to make a good impression? 
  • Have you ever met someone you hated right away even though you didn't know them? 
  • Have you ever been wrong by judging a person for your first impression? 
  • Are you worried about the first impression you make? What do you do to improve it?
We also worked with some activities like these ones:

Activity 1
Work with your partner and think about 10 characteristics or features you pay attention to when you get a first impression.

Acitvity 2
Think about 5 good questions to know your partner. Then make these questions to your mate and let your mate do the same with you. For example: If you were an animal, what animal would you be? Why? or What are your strengths and your weaknesses?

Activity 3
Imagine you're going to a job interview (for a shop-assistant, a clerk, a nurse, a teacher and so on) and you are the interviewer. Make questions to your mate. Then swap your roles.

Activity 4
Have you ever got wrong about somebody because of their appearnace? Share your experience of being wrong due to your first impression about someone and tell us what happened in the end. 

We are going to watch a couple of videos in class. This first video is about polite questions in a job interview but it's a bit easy; it's useful for revising what you already know; click here
This one is a good example of a job interview although it focus on compound adjectives; click here
