Writing folder 3: FCE exam simulation.
EXAM QUESTION: your college is going to create a new student cafè. You have been asked to write a report for the principal, explaining \why students don't use the existing facilities and making recommendations for the new cafè. Write your report.
From: Paolo P°°°°°
To: new cafè supervisor
Date: December 14 2015
The aim of this report is to explaining the problem of the existing cafè and to make some recommendations on the creation of the new one.
The opening schedule of the actual bar is probably too short and unsuitable for the students habits. Many of them finish late in the afternoon, shortly before the cafè had closed. It would be a good idea if the new one had a longer schedule. It might close after 9 pm to give the opportunity to the students to have dinner there.
Another problem of the actual student cafe is the little choice in the menu. The needs of the clients are so varied that it should have a wide range of alternatives to the classic sandwich. In particular, more and more people are becoming vegetarians and a good bar must cater to their demands.
When the students go to the existing cafe they have problems to finding a free table because there is limited. It's important to have good furniture. If there was more seating, many clients could enjoy the ambient (atmosphere).
My last reccommendation is about Internet. Nowadays there are places where people can stay connected to the web everywhere. A free WiFi spot can be very helpful and comfortable for the consumers,
To sum up, the new student cafe has to focus your investiments on extending the opening hour, on improving its menu to be suitable to every kind of client and modernizing the space by adding more seating. I would also suggest adding free access to internet in the bar.
