Learn the language used to ask for and give directions, whether you’re walking or driving. Are you planning to visit a foreign city? What will you do if you get lost there? You will likely have to ask someone for directions back to your hotel or to the attraction you were planning to visit. They’re probably going to answer speaking quickly, using specific words and terms, so you better know what to expect. Even if you’re not visiting an English-speaking country, as a tourist you will very often be communicating in English! In this class, I’ll teach you how to use terms such as: "next to", "not far from", "kitty corner", "across the street from", "fastest way to get to", "head to", "eastward", and many more.
