走出国门,语言当先。本周卢新新老师的“旅游英语”系列讲座强势来袭,带领大家走遍天下。本次“旅游英语”系列讲座共分为四场,分别是酒店、景点、文化、购物,围绕旅游的重要环节展开。5月15日晚上19:00-21:00, “旅游英语之酒店”专题讲座在书明楼B303教室开讲。
卢老师首先带领同学们了解酒店的基本部门,包含前厅部(the front office department)、客房部(the housekeeping department)、餐饮部(the food and beverage department)等。同时要了解酒店的基本房型,有单人间(single room)、标间(standard room)、双人间(double room)、家庭房(family room)、标准套房(standard suite)、豪华套房(deluxe suite)、总统套房(presidential suite)等。作为服务人员,在客人预订过程能够更好地向客人推荐相应的房型。作为游客,能够用英语完成预订,进行有效地沟通。还要了解酒店的基本服务,如入住(check-in)、退房(check-out)、叫早服务(morning call service)、客房送餐服务(room service)、开夜床服务(turn-down service)、维修服务(maintenance service)、洗衣服务(laundry service)等。作为服务人员,掌握这些专业名词,才能够更好地为客人提供服务。作为游客,掌握这些词汇,能够在出国游的过程中,更好地表达自己的需求,与服务人员进行沟通。
