Horizons Interactive Roleplay
The Lost in the City Challenge – London Edition
Can you find your way through London using clear English?
How it works
Read, listen, or speak your way through each line in the roleplay. Choose or say the reply you would use in this situation.
Some answers are clear and natural. Other answers are grammatically wrong, unclear, or too rude. If local people, drivers, or staff do not understand you, the roleplay becomes more difficult.
You can recover by using repair language such as: “Sorry, I mean…”, “Could you repeat that, please?” and “Could you help me?” At the end, review your result and submit it to your teacher/tutor.
