- Real-life scenario and goal
- A2 English learner at a neighborhood pharmacy in Toronto. Ask a pharmacist for a non-prescription option for seasonal allergies. Mention drowsiness matters because the learner drives. Complication: the first product may cause drowsiness. No diagnosis or medical recommendation; practice asking questions and being directed to professional advice.
- Learner level and limits
- A2. Comfortable with present simple and can/can't. Keep the model dialogue to 10–12 short turns. Difficulties: long questions and consonant clusters. Avoid detailed symptoms and dosage advice.
- Practice focus
- Excuse me; I'm looking for; Does it make you sleepy?; Is there another option?; clarification phrase ‘Could you say that again more slowly?’; polite Canadian retail register
