In this ESL lesson plan for adults and teens, students watch a video and do a listening exercise on the Google Assistant "Interpreter Mode" which translates conversations in real-time. It includes discussion questions, conversation, and other activities about hotels, traveling, and translation. Students learn some important vocabulary phrases from the video. The grammar activity features present simple vs present continuous. There is a bonus dialogue activity included.
