Introducción
Work-life & People is about describing daily routines versus activities people are doing at the present
time. Structures and vocabulary covered are useful to communicate about everyday life at a work
environment, and contrast it with temporary or current activities. Work-life & People also covers language to
speak about skills and abilities, all fundamental to communicate with colleagues in English.

What do you do?

What are you doing?
"What do you do?" ("¿A qué te dedicas?") asks about your habits or
routines.
On the contrary, "What are you doing?" ("¿Qué está/estás haciendo?")
asks about your present and temporary activities.

How often do you use the English language?
How often asks about the frequency in which you do activities. When
we talk of routines, we don’t necessarily mean things we do every
day –we also mean actions or activities that happen once a week,
month, year, etc.
