Patricia: St George College Librarian

July 31st, 2006 by MariaRosa Ochoa in ESL podcasts, esol, TAFE

Last week we had a tour of the library. Greig Thomson, the library manager, gave a power point presentation on the library services and facilities. Then he gave as a tour of the library and showed us where the ESL books are, the graded readers, how to use the library catalogue and also took us to a computer room to show us a couple of ESL CDROM programs, Issues in English and Connect Speech.

Another librarian, Patricia Murdoch, was very kind and let me interview her for a podcast for those students who were absent. You can all listen to it, though, as it is a good listening excersice and it will help everyone with the library portfolio.

Before listening to it, do these library exercises. They will help you understand better. Then you can practise your English by writing the answers in your blog.

    It’s very useful. So now I know how I can borrow a book from the library.

    Hi Patcharin,
    Your talk about the grammar book you had borrowed from the library was very good. Thanks for recommending it to your classmates. I hope you continue borrowing all types of books, including fiction. The ones with cassettes are great for pronunciation and listening skills too.
