Учебно-методический комплекс по дисциплине иностранный язык (английский) для специальности (-ей) 1- 24-01-02 Правоведение (Курс 1,2) (стр. 4 )

Elementary students may find introducing themselves and others intimidating. Help students to navigate these situations by highlighting key phrases such as those in the Useful language box (see Course Book page 12). Drill pronunciation and intonation and give students plenty of opportunity to use the language with short role-plays. Imagine what you would feel like if you were in a strange city meeting business contacts for the first time, using an unfamiliar language. A few well-practised phrases may help to give enough confidence to make that first impression count.
