• some ideas

Level B2

🌱 1. Start by Defining the Dream Clearly

Even the biggest dreams need a clear shape.
Ask:

• What exactly do I want to do? (e.g., become a nurse, open a small business, travel, support my family)
• Why is it important to me?
• What skills or resources do I need to get there?

📝 Tip: Writing down a dream makes it more real and easier to plan for.

📚 2. Get Education or Practical Skills

Education is one of the most powerful tools for breaking the poverty cycle.
If formal education isn’t easily available:

• Look for local NGOs or government programs that offer free skills training (tailoring, agriculture, hospitality, language, computer skills).
• Learn online for free through YouTube, Coursera, or local learning centers.
• Practice English or another language if the dream involves travel or working abroad.

🎓 Even small skills can become the foundation for a bigger future.

🧭 3. Start Small — Take the First Step

Big dreams don’t need big money at the start.
Examples:

• If she wants to run a business → sell small things first in the local market.
• If she wants to be a teacher → tutor younger kids in the village.
• If she wants to travel → work or volunteer in nearby towns to earn and save slowly.

🚶 Every successful person starts with one small step.

🤝 4. Build a Support Network

• Connect with local women’s groups, community leaders, or church/temple/mosque groups that support young people.
• Look for mentors — a teacher, a neighbor, a social worker.
• Use social media wisely to learn, not just scroll.

🫂 The right people can open doors you didn’t know existed.

💰 5. Learn to Manage Money

Even with little income, learning to save and plan is powerful:

• Save a small amount regularly.
• Avoid high-interest loans.
• If possible, join microfinance or community savings groups.

💵 Money is a tool — even a little can grow with planning.

🌍 6. Be Open to Opportunities

Many successful people from humble backgrounds succeeded because they:

• Applied for scholarships or training abroad
• Joined volunteer or exchange programs
• Worked in a city for a while to support their dream

✨ When a door opens, be ready to walk through it.

💪 7. Stay Strong When Life Is Hard

• There will be moments of doubt or failure.
• Some people will not believe in her dream — but she must believe in herself.
• Many women from rural Southeast Asia have built inspiring lives through strength, faith, and persistence.

🔥 Dreamers don’t need to be rich — they need to be determined.

🌸 8. Give Back

When she achieves her dream — even a small part of it — she can inspire and help others from her village, too. This creates a cycle of empowerment.

• why i love my job

My name is Anika. I work at the front desk of a hotel. I like my job very much. I meet many people from different countries. Every day is new and interesting.

In the morning, I check the reservations. I prepare the front desk. When guests arrive, I welcome them with a smile. I help them check in and give them keys to their rooms. I tell them about the hotel and the city. I answer questions and give advice for sightseeing.

During the day, I talk to many guests. Some guests need help with rooms or taxis. Some guests ask about tickets. I like to help them fast. I also solve problems when something is wrong.

I like my job because I can make people happy. I try to remember their names. Sometimes I write a welcome note or give a small gift. Guests feel happy when I help them.

In the evening, I check reservations for the next day. I prepare the front desk again. I feel good when guests smile and say thank you. My job is not easy, but it is very nice. I like to meet people, help them, and make their stay special.

Water Conservation in Hotels

Water conservation helps save water for the planet. Hotels can use many ways to save water. One way is to have low-flow faucets and showers. These faucets and showers use less water than normal ones.

Guests can also help save water. They can reuse towels and sheets. If a guest wants to use a towel again, they can leave it on the rack. This way, the hotel does not wash it every day. Washing towels and sheets many times uses a lot of water.

Hotels can also collect rainwater. This is called rainwater harvesting. Rainwater can be used for gardens, cleaning, or flushing toilets. It is better than using fresh water for these purposes.

There are examples from different countries. A hotel in Bali asks guests to leave towels on the rack if they want to use them again. Some hotels in Europe have rainwater tanks. They use this water to water their gardens.

By using these methods, hotels save water and help the environment. Guests can also take part by reusing towels and sheets. Together, hotels and guests can reduce water use and protect the planet for the future.

1. Energy Efficiency (Saves electricity and helps the environment)

Hotels use many ways to save electricity and help the environment.

• LED and Energy-Saving Lights
  Hotels use LED lights or energy-saving bulbs instead of normal lights. LED lights use less electricity and last a long time.
  Examples:
  • A hotel in Singapore uses LED lights in all rooms and halls. It saves a lot of electricity.
  • In a hotel in Germany, corridor lights are very dim in the daytime to save energy.
  • A hotel in Japan uses LED lights in the garden and parking area. It saves money and energy.
  • Some hotels in France use small LED lamps in bathrooms to save electricity.
• Solar Panels and Renewable Energy
  Solar panels give electricity from the sun. Hotels can use this electricity for lights, heating, or hot water.
  Examples:
  • A hotel in Bali uses solar panels to make electricity for the swimming pool and spa.
  • A hotel in California uses solar panels for hot water in all rooms.
  • A resort in Spain has solar panels for the kitchen and restaurant lights.
  • A hotel in Thailand heats water with solar panels for all rooms.
• Smart Energy Systems
  Hotels use smart systems to save electricity. These systems turn off lights, air conditioning, or heating when nobody is in the room.
  Examples:
  • Motion sensors in hotel hallways turn off lights when no one is there.
  • Smart thermostats in rooms make the air conditioning turn off when guests leave.
  • A hotel in Dubai uses a smart system to control all lights and air conditioning from one computer.
  • Some hotels in Italy turn off lights automatically in empty meeting rooms.
• Other Energy-Saving Ideas
  Hotels do more to save energy in small ways.
  Examples:
  • A hotel in Australia uses energy-saving elevators that stop when nobody is on the floor.
  • Some hotels use special windows to keep rooms cool in summer and warm in winter.
  • Hotels in Canada use timers for swimming pool lights to save electricity.
  • A hotel in India encourages guests to reuse towels and sheets, so washing machines use less electricity.

Hotels use many ways to save electricity and help the environment. Energy efficiency is very important because it saves money and protects nature.

First, hotels use LED lights or energy-saving bulbs. These lights use less electricity and last a long time. For example, a hotel in Singapore uses LED lights in all rooms and hallways. In Germany, corridor lights are very dim in the daytime. A hotel in Japan uses LED lights in the garden and parking area. Some hotels in France use small LED lamps in bathrooms. All these ways save energy and money.

Second, hotels use solar panels. Solar panels give electricity from the sun. Hotels can use this electricity for lights, heating, or hot water. A hotel in Bali uses solar panels for the swimming pool and spa. A hotel in California uses solar panels for hot water in all rooms. A resort in Spain uses solar panels for the kitchen and restaurant lights. A hotel in Thailand heats water with solar panels for all rooms. Solar panels are good because they use clean energy.

Third, hotels use smart energy systems. Motion sensors turn off lights in hallways when nobody is there. Smart thermostats turn off air conditioning when guests leave. Some hotels in Dubai and Italy control lights and air conditioning from a computer.

Finally, hotels save energy in small ways. A hotel in Australia uses elevators that stop when nobody is on the floor. Special windows keep rooms cool in summer and warm in winter. Hotels in India ask guests to reuse towels and sheets.

In conclusion, hotels can save electricity in many ways. They help the environment, save money, and become more modern.

• a vacation full of surprises

Last year, a man stayed in a small hotel. He wanted a quiet and comfortable vacation, but everything went wrong. The hotel looked nice outside, but the room was very different. The first problem was the fridge. It was very dirty and full of old food. The man tried to clean it, but it was difficult.

Next, he tried to take a shower. The water was very cold. He waited a long time, but it never became warm. He tried to wash quickly, but he felt very cold. The towel was also very small and old.

The bed was not comfortable. The mattress was very soft in some places and hard in other places. The pillow was flat and thin. He could not sleep well at night. There was also a loud noise in the hotel. The neighbors were very noisy, and the walls were very thin.

In the morning, he went to eat breakfast. The coffee was cold, and the bread was hard. He tried to eat slowly, but it was difficult.

Even with all these problems, he tried to enjoy the hotel. He walked outside and saw a nice garden. He took photos and smiled. At the end of his stay, he was tired but happy because he could laugh 17172

at all the problems.

• Always keep learning
  → Hotels offer training to improve skills like communication, problem-solving, and guest relations.
• Show respect and kindness
  → Guests should always feel safe, respected, and welcome. Kindness creates good memories.
• Solve problems quickly

Setting:
The manager’s office at the Grand Horizon Hotel.
The sun is shining. The office is bright and quiet.
Papers, a laptop, and two cups of coffee are on the table.

Characters:

• Ms. Elena Carter, Hotel Manager
• Mr. Raj Patel, Assistant Manager

Ms. Carter: Good morning, Raj. How are you today?

Mr. Patel: Good morning, Ms. Carter. I am fine, thank you. And you?

Ms. Carter: I am good, thank you. Let’s talk about how we can improve service for our guests.

Mr. Patel: Yes, of course. Where should we start?

Ms. Carter: I think listening to guests is very important. Sometimes staff are busy and do not pay full attention.

Mr. Patel: Yes, I see that too. Guests want us to look at them and show interest. Nodding or smiling makes a big difference.

Ms. Carter: Exactly. And remembering guest names also helps. When we say, “Good evening, Mr. Lee,” it feels personal.

Mr. Patel: True. But some staff forget names. We can encourage them to repeat the name in their mind and use it during the meal.

Ms. Carter: Good idea. Speed is also important. Guests do not like waiting too long.

Mr. Patel: I agree. Sometimes staff are slow because one person is busy.

Ms. Carter: That is why teamwork is important. If one staff member is busy, another can help. It makes service smooth and less stressful.

Mr. Patel: Yes. And I think learning simple words in different languages can also help. Even “hello” or “thank you” in a guest’s language is nice.

Ms. Carter: Absolutely. It shows respect and care. Speaking the guest’s language makes them feel welcome.

Mr. Patel: Some staff need more training to handle problems. Guests sometimes complain about small things.

Ms. Carter: That is true. We must teach staff to act quickly and politely. A fast solution and a kind apology can turn a problem into a happy guest experience.

Mr. Patel: Small details are important too. A clean table, a polite greeting, remembering drinks or preferences… it all matters.
——————–end of dualogue————–

Ms. Carter: Yes. Guests notice small things. It makes the experience special.

Mr. Patel: And staff attitude is very important. Respect and kindness create good memories for guests.

Ms. Carter: Definitely. Staff should always be polite, warm, and respectful. When guests feel safe and welcome, they remember the hotel positively.

Mr. Patel: I also think pride in work is important. Staff who enjoy their job give better service.

Ms. Carter: Exactly. If staff feel proud, guests can feel it too. Pride leads to quality and success.

Mr. Patel: So, listening, remembering names, being fast, teamwork, learning languages, solving problems quickly, checking details, showing kindness, and being proud.

Ms. Carter: Yes, Raj. But the key is to practice these every day, not just in training. Guests will notice small improvements and be happy.

Mr. Patel: I agree. I will talk to the team and start coaching them this week.

Ms. Carter: Excellent. Thank you, Raj. Let’s make sure our guests have the best experience every day.

Mr. Patel: Yes, Ms. Carter. I am ready to start.
