student is also a job. We can also make the job we want as our ideals in the future.

THEORETICAL STUDY

A. Jobs
a. Asking about job
This is some questions that we can use when we want to ask someone job.
1. What is your work?
2. What is your job?
3. What is your occupation?
4. What do you do?
5. What do you do for a living?
6. What kind of work do you do? 
7. What’s your position/title?
8. What’s your profession?
9. What line of work are you in?
10. Where do you work?
b. Answering the questions about job
1. What Do You Do?
“What do you do?” or in Indonesian is “Apa yang kamu lakukan (untuk bekerja)?”
is the most common interrogative sentence in English that is used when you want to ask what kind
of job someone has.
When other people ask “What do you do?” we can answer with the pattern I am + our job, or  I
work as + our job. Example : “I am a writer” or “I work as a writer”.
 I am a freelancer.
 I am an entrepreneur.
 I’m a housewife.
 I work as a civil servant.
 I work as an office worker.
 I’m an intern.
 I’m a part-time worker.
2.  What Do You Do for a Living?
We can answer the question of “What do you do for a living?” with the pattern I am + our job,  I
work as  + our job, atau I work at  + our job place.
Examples:
  I’m an artist.
 I work at a hospital.
 I work as a police officer.
3. What is Your Job/ Occupation?

In Indonesia the meaning of , “What is your job” or, “What is your occupation?” is “Apa
pekerjaanmu?”. Based on English grammar, this interrogative sentence is indeed correct. However,
it's best not to use this interrogative sentence with strangers, as it's too direct and doesn't sound
natural to native English speakers. However, sometimes there are people who use this interrogative
sentence to ask someone's job. We can use the pattern  I am + our job, I work as + our job, atau I
work at  + our job place.

c. Using Article “a” or “an”

We use article “a or an” to explain about someone profession.
1. a is using to the profession begins with consonant letter.
Example :
 a singer
 a dentist
 a teacher

2. an is using if the professions begins with Vocal letter.

Example:

 an employee
 an artist
 an engineer
d. Conversation of asking job in English
A : Are you a college student?
B :  I got my Diploma last year, I’m working now.
A : Oh, what do you do?
B : I’m a nurse.
A : That’s nice. My mother was a nurse, too.

B. Routines
Talking about daily routines is not difficult, because we already understand the content of the
conversation well and there is nothing to make up. Telling about the activity is simply done by stating
the facts about what happened (the activity), the time sequence, and additional details such as feelings
or with whom the activity was carried out.
 To be able to talk about daily activities in English, what is needed first is vocabulary about the
activities carried out, conjunctions of time to sort activities, and descriptions of when the activity
occurred.

1. Verb that explain daily routine

Daily activity is the activity that routine to do (habit), so that using simple present tense.
 I  / You  / We / They + Verb 1
Example:
 I go to school from Monday until Friday.
 We always go home together after school.
 He / She / It + Verb 1 + (s/es)
Example :
 She likes to read books every day. (Dia suka membaca buku setiap hari.)
 My father drinks coffee every morning. (Ayahku meminum kopi setiap pagi.)

2. (time connectors)
