Default Re: How do you get the students THINKING in English?

Tough question. I think it's just important to tell them they should be trying to think in English and not constantly translating. But it's hard. I'm pretty fluent in Japanese and when I come across a thought that I can't express in Japanese, my thought process turns back into English.
