LLFE-YL01 · What’s Your Name? — Greetings and Introductions
👋 What’s Your Name?
⏱ 5 minutes · 📚 CELTA-informed · 🎯 Cambridge A1
📖 From the teacher’s desk: When I first arrived in La Réunion from Sydney, I had to reintroduce myself dozens of times — in French, English, and sometimes a mix of both! At my son’s crèche, the little ones always loved practising “Hello, my name is…” with huge smiles. Greetings are the very first key to any language door.
🎯 By the end of this lesson, you can: say hello, tell someone your name, and ask “What’s your name?”
