Lesson 2 · 40 min
Read an article: AI assistants at work
Objective
Understand advantages and limits in an article.
The lesson
In an argued article, find the advantages and the limits. Words like but, however and on the other hand introduce limits. The conclusion often gives the writer's opinion. Look for examples for each idea.
Worked example
More and more small businesses use AI assistants. A hairdresser in Leeds uses one to answer booking messages at night. A plumber in Toronto uses one to write quotes. They save time. However, the tools sometimes make mistakes, and customers still want to speak to a real person. The best solution, experts say, is to use AI for simple tasks and keep the human contact.

Advantages: answer messages at night, write quotes, save time. Limits: mistakes, customers want a real person. Conclusion: AI for simple tasks + human contact.

Lesson 3 · 45 min
Debate: will machines replace workers?
Objective
Take part in a discussion with arguments and examples.
The lesson
In a discussion: give your opinion, support it with an example, react to the other person (That's a good point, but…) and ask a question to keep the conversation going: What do you think? Speak for about 20 seconds per turn and don't read your notes.
Worked example
Examiner: Do you think machines will replace workers in your trade?
Student: Not completely. Robots can paint cars, but they can't talk to a customer about a problem.
Examiner: But some customers prefer machines. They're faster.
Student: That's a good point. However, a machine can't explain a choice or reassure a nervous customer. What do you think?
Examiner: I think you're right about human contact.
Listen to the model
Opinion (Not completely) → example (robots paint cars) → reaction (That's a good point. However…) → question (What do you think?).
