The project will allow the learners to further develop and
reinforce the language and structures they have been using
throughout the tourism project. As part of their research the
learners will visit hotels to gather the information required to be
translated. The learners will then work in groups, with each group
working on a particular theme. i.e. signs for the hotels or
information about checking in and out, using the phone, fire drill
explanations etc.
