Quiz playing is a wonderful way to increase your knowledge of English as a Second Language. Remember that all of our ESL quizzes have titles that are both friendly and technical at the same time… In the case of this quiz you might like to tell your friends about “On the Job” but no doubt your teachers will talk about the “English Professions quiz”! If you hear a technical term and you want to find a quiz about the subject then just look through the list of quiz titles until you find what you need.
Most of us need to work, to bring in money and earn a living: perhaps that's why you are learning English. There are lots of words to describe English professions, including the things we need, do and make. This quiz will help you look at some terms used in English professions.
Remember also that English almost always says someone is 'a pilot' or 'an organist' (or whatever). Many other languages don't do the 'a'. Russian simply says 'Svetlana ballerina', without even having a verb; German says such things as 'Mein Bruder ist Lehrer', and in French 'Sa femme est actrice'. Not a hint of 'a' anywhere!
