Ready to roll up your sleeves and get your students talking about DIY? This engaging B1-B2-level ESL resource is perfect for learners who enjoy hands-on topics like home improvement, fixing things, and navigating renovation disasters.

In this lesson, students will:

• Learn and practise renovation-related vocabulary
• Use tools and actions in context (e.g. drill, fix, measure)
• Discuss dilemmas like noisy neighbours, unexpected costs, and design choices
• Read a fun story about a forgetful DIY-er with comprehension questions
• Share opinions and experiences in open-ended discussion tasks

It’s ideal for speaking-focused lessons or vocabulary revision. Plus, it brings a real-life topic into the classroom in a humorous and relatable way!

If your students love stories, talking, and learning everyday English – they’ll love this.
