ESOL in workplaces:
Lesson plans

Lesson plans

The lesson plans and accompanying resources are designed for students at ESOL Entry Level 1 and 2. They cover topics for employment and workplace skills. They have been designed so you can deliver lessons either one to one, in a class, face to face or online. The resources can be used with learners who may be using a smartphone.

All documents are in Word so you can adapt them to meet the needs of your learner. If you are interested in finding out more about how to introduce ESOL into your workplace or use any of the content to develop your own programme get in touch with us at info@leah.org.uk
