LESSON OVERVIEW

In this lesson, students discuss the idea of stay interviews in depth and learn phrases which are useful to talk about employer-employee relationship.

B2 / Upper Intermediate30 minCritical Reading ClubUnlimited Plan

This is a Critical Reading Club worksheet. With this format, students need to read an online article at home and do the exercises in the classroom. Learn more about how to use such worksheets and their benefits in our post.

ACTIVITIES

The lesson starts with an activity in which students use what they remember from the article to finish two sentences about stay interviews. Then, they read five sentences and decide if they are true or false. The sentences refer to employer-employee relationship and contain useful phrases from the article (e.g. be on the fence, be short of choice, get your point across). After that, students move on to the discussion part of the lesson where they share their views on the idea of stay interviews and decide how useful they can be for companies and employees. Finally, students read five sample questions from a stay interview. Their task is to discuss how they would change them so that they are more appropriate for an interview of this kind.

Questions

Title separator

Is there a minimum subscription period if I choose a monthly subscription?

No, there’s no minimum required number of subscription months. You can cancel any time you want. Basically, you can sign up and then cancel your subscription the next day, which will mean you have access for 1 month and won’t be charged again.

What currencies can I pay in for my subscription?

Our default currency is USD (American dollar), but you can also pay in EUR (euro), GBP (British pound sterling) or PLN (Polish zloty). You can change the currency you want to pay in at the Pricing page before selecting a subscription plan.

How can I edit an e-lesson plan?

You can get your own editable copy of an e-lesson plan and make changes to it. To do so, either (1) make a copy of it on your Google Drive (preferable method) or (2) download it in a Powerpoint format (but formatting might be a bit off so we can’t guarantee that it will work well).
