English for Travel and Tourism

Dear
members,
I have to
design an English syllabus for a Travel and Tourism course (160 hours), and I
do not know where to start.
I wonder if
you could help with some ideas or reference teaching resources.
Thank you
in advance.

Writing a syllabus is a specialised and time consuming task which shouldn �t be expected to be done by teachers.
I recommend using a reputable course book and use that instead of starting from scratch. Look at at contents pages and you �ll have your syllabus.
Possible candidates could be English for International Tourism from Longman (3 levels) or Highly Recommended from OUP (2 levels).
Google will tell you more about them :) |

Thank you very much for your advice.
I have already found some interesting resources.
The course is aimed at Spanish speakers who are training to work in the Travel and Tourism Industry.
I will not be the person in charge of teaching the course. I am a language teacher, and I have been asked if I could collaborate in this project.
Have a nice day! |

Hi, we are working on an open curriculum about travelling. I started it with a task based learning and each S tried to tell his information about a country the had visited. I try to find differentiated resources for different abilities ( from books, internet, magazines.....)by the end of the semester the Ss must do their own research about a country they chose from different aspects. I hope that it can help |
