Course Content Meeting the chef, countries/nationalities, and workplace communication expressions; ingredients and eating habits in the kitchen; menu sections, kitchen tools/appliances, and taking orders at a restaurant; recipes for flavors and telling the story of a dish/chef; kitchen uniforms, job interviews, and describing work experience; kitchen rules, instructions, and reporting problems; comparing dishes in terms of quality, health, price, and portion size; accidents in the kitchen and apologizing; health problems, food labels, and giving advice; green gastronomy and future plans in the kitchen (within the scope of NEXUS 2: English for Gastronomy and Culinary Arts, Units 1-10).
Course Methods and Techniques The course is based on Communicative Language Teaching and Task-Based Language Teaching. With a student-centered approach, it uses lectures, question-and-answer activities, role-plays, pair/group work, dialogue practice, and short presentations. Grammar structures are reinforced through example sentences and communicative activities set in kitchen and restaurant contexts. Professional vocabulary is supported with visual materials, audio/video recordings, food labels, and authentic menu and recipe samples. Listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills are addressed in an integrated way. Assessment is based on in-class participation, task performance, assignments, and exam results.
