 Posted: Wed Jun 25, 2008 9:30 pm Post subject: A driving lesson? |
 |
|
Has anyone ever taught anything about driving? I've been asked to provide a lesson about driving, not driving lessons.
I did a "reckless taxi driver" lesson last week, adapted from something I found here on Dave's. A conversation reviewing personal info questions, present perfect and commands. Anyone got any suggestions?
I've asked for clarity but none was forthcoming, just a vague "something about driving." Help? |

| You could try teaching them about Canadian driving manners and etiquette, though that would probably be as hopeless as trying to teach them to eat with their mouths shut. |

I solve that problem easily. I ask them are you cows? and then smack my jaws like a cow and go moo. Cows eat like this. Humans eat like this.
They stop pretty fast. |

Haha.
Although you're actually doing a disservice to cows everywhere. They don't eat half as noisily as Koreans.
As for the lesson about driving - good luck! Koreans are already the 'best drivers in the world' - I know it's true because my co-teacher told me so. |

Probably, since they aren't driving in Canada.  |
