This is a worksheet I developed for my business Russian students aimed at B2/C1 level. The file contains an interview with a book author. The task is to substitute English words with Russian equivalents. The vocabulary is business and finance focused. Students will also benefit from finding a number of synonymous constructions for the phrases to be translated into English. If used for self-study, the worksheet will require work with a dictionary or a teacher’s guidance. While using it for my own lessons, I encouraged students to think of the answers to the questions posed by the journalist in the text before proceeding to reading the author’s answers. This prompted a lively discussion in the group and a bit of a break from a rather intense grammar and vocab exercise.

This resource is aimed both at teachers preparing students for the new GCSE specification (first certification from 2019) as well as students. The file includes a student’s card (that imitates a card that a student will be given at the exam and based on which a discussion with the examiner will follow) and a teacher’s card. we included questions that cover a broad spectrum within the chosen theme (Local area, holiday, travel in this worksheet). Pages 3-4 provide possible answers aimed at achieving the highest grades. We included grammatical constructions and vocabulary listed in Specification Pearson Edexcel GCSE Russian.

This resource is aimed both at teachers preparing students for the new GCSE specification (first certification from 2019) as well as students. The file includes a student’s card (that imitates a card that a student will be given at the exam and based on which a discussion with the examiner will follow) , a teacher’s card and sample answers to all five questions. The answers acan be used as a starting point for a discussion, to practise vocabulary (for example, do a word search) or certain grammar themes (e.g. find all examples of Genitive case in the text, find the verbs in the past tense, retell the text in the past tense or from the third person,etc). Teachers could encourage the students to discuss the sample answers, saying whther they share the same viewpoint. It is impossible to predict the exact questions but we tried to include the questions that cover a broad spectrum within the chosen theme (School in this instance).
