👩🚒 What Does She Do? — Jobs & Questions

Read the little scene below.
🤔 What does your mom or your dad do? Can you say it in English?
👩⚕️ Jobs — Who Am I?
Ask "What does she do?" to know someone's job. Answer with a or an + the job: "She's a doctor."
🕵️ Who Am I? — Guess The Job!
Read the clue, guess the job, then click the card to flip it and hear the answer!
Before a job that starts with a vowel sound (a, e, i, o, u), use an: an artist, an engineer, an architect. Otherwise use a: a doctor, a teacher. Never forget it: "She's doctor" ❌ → "She's a doctor" ✅.
✅ Do Or Does? — Yes/No Questions
To ask a yes/no question in the simple present, put Do before I, you, we, they and Does before he, she, it. The verb comes after the subject.
After does, the verb loses its -s: "She works." → "Does she work?" — never "Does she works?" ❌. The -s moved to does!

💛 What's She Like? — Always & Never
Ask "What's she like?" or "What are they like?" to know someone's personality. Answer with an adjective: "She's hardworking." "They're friendly." "He's lazy."
Don't mix them up! "What does she look like?" = her face, her hair (Lesson 12). "What's she like?" = her personality: friendly, funny, hardworking...
🔁 Always = all the time
- "They're always busy."
- "He always helps me."
🚫 Never = none of the time
- "She never smiles."
- "He's never late."
🎚️ The Always–Never Switch
Pick a sentence, then flip the switch: watch where always or never jumps in! It goes after am/is/are, but before other verbs.
