 Re: Ideas for conversation classes
Most people like to talk about themselves......ask students questions that make them feel good such as...
1. What was the best part of today?
2. What makes you smile?
3. Talk about your best friend.
4. Define success in your own terms.
5. What are your short/long-term goals?
etc....
It's the teacher's responsibility to get the ball rollin' in those "silent, awkward moments". So have fun, be creative and remember that young people teach us teachers the importance of Change, creation and keeping things fresh. That is their talent.
Good luck!
