These are tips that we have shared in various ESL classes & “awareness” workshops. Simple guidelines when working with employees with Limited English Proficiency (LEP).
Communicate to the main idea – Keep phrases and sentences as simple as possible. Don’t’ use broken English.
- Think of at least one other way to rephrase what you want to say.
Avoid asking “yes/no” questions or asking “Do you understand?” Remember to ask “wh-“ questions or open-ended questions to check comprehension:
i.e. Instead of asking, “Did you talk to your supervisor?” ask, “Who did you talk to?”
In place of, “Do you work tomorrow?” you could say, “When are you free / off this week?”
The point is to ask a question in a way to elicit a specific response and not just a “yes/no” answer.
When they are speaking to you:
- Invite them to speak slowly.
- Give them time to communicate.
Ask yourself:
- Am I doing all I can to be understood? SHOW then what you want.
- Am I trying to learn about my employees both personally and culturally?
Please don’t:
- Assume that a lack of English proficiency indicates that lack of intelligence.
- Assume that inability to express thoughts clearly means workers can’t understand you.

ONLINE SPANISH TESTIMONIALS
“The instructors are fun, friendly, and encourage you to challenge the training and expand on the verbiage.
Lessons were always reviewed before they ended and again reviewed when the next lesson started.
A great experience, better than Rosetta Stone!”

Ed,
To sum up, I thought the program was great. The pace was good, and I learned a lot of information in a short amount of time. Jessica was a phenomenal teacher who was patient yet productive. If there are any openings, I’d like to run the gauntlet again, to try and get better.
Thank you,

This has been a great experience thus far! As for me. I find myself more confident attempting to converse in Spanish when I am out in the field visiting restaurants now. I’ve got three courses left to complete my ten, but I’ve been very impressed with the instructor, the coursework

“My ultimate goal is to be able to communicate at the restaurant to the Outbackers. I can
communicate a bit now, but the lessons with Jessica definitely helped! Jessica was awesome! She
was very patient and it really helped communicating with a live person vs. using a book! “
