Language lessons

Some authentic material is well within the reach of lower level students, as the following clip from Fawlty Towers, the world-famous British series, shows.

This clip presents the misunderstandings between Basil Fawlty, the hotel owner, and Manuel, the Spanish waiter, who finds it difficult to understand and make himself understood in English.

Just enjoy the video, and see what happens when there are communication problems.
