Download this free A2–B1 English worksheet PDF for English learners and teachers. This lesson is based on a recent Guardian feature about appearance, clothes, hair, attractiveness and professional life.
Students practise reading comprehension, useful vocabulary and speaking skills through a real-world work topic about professional appearance, dress rules, job interviews, video calls, tattoos, casual clothes and workplace judgement. The worksheet is suitable for private English lessons, online classes, classroom teaching, homework and self-study.
The article explains the topic in clear, simple English. Students read that the Guardian spoke to eight workers in different jobs about how appearance can matter at work. Some people said looking professional can help with customers, interviews or video calls, while research suggests attractive people can sometimes have an advantage.
This worksheet helps lower-level learners discuss work clothes and professional appearance in accessible English. Students talk about what they normally wear to work or study, whether they have worn a uniform, what they would wear to an important job interview, and whether trainers, tattoos or unusual hair should affect someone’s career.
The PDF includes a short A2–B1 reading text, True / False questions, Synonym Match, a task where students use new vocabulary, discussion questions and a full answer key. It helps learners build useful vocabulary for talking about appearance, workers, clothes, customers, pressure, casual style, skills and suitable workplace clothing.
