Hotel English Training
If you already have strong English skills, especially in speaking and listening, you may not need to formally study Hotel English. You will likely receive training when offered a job. However, preparing yourself to obtain such a job could be a huge help.

For example, you can:

1. study hotel-related vocabulary and expressions. Note that these can vary. For example, five-star hotels may offer specific services. Hotel websites contain many of these words and phrases, so be sure to visit them.

2. Check out video-based websites, such as YouTube and Vimeo. YouTube, for example, has several series on Hotel English.

3. Practice listening to English in many accents and at different speeds. You could, for example, spend time in places with a lot of tourists. Travel programs on television are also a great resource.

And, be sure to follow Mona's advice as well!
