Dialogues and Conversations 11-20. English Teaching Materials for ESL Adults. Casual English Expressions (Just Speaking)
This series of dialogues and conversations has been released to fulfil a demand in the ESL industry for more mature style conversations for use in private tuition as well as pair or group work in the adult classroom. (Now with an active table of contents)
Just Speaking #2 contains casual dialogues with a number of common spoken expressions thrown in to challenge the student. While intermediate level and above is recommended, these dialogues can also be used to challenge beginners into improving their reading and pronunciation skills.
These have been reformatted for use on a Kindle so that ESL Kindle users can practice reading the dialogues out loud and discuss the language used with their tutor or with each other.
These eBooks contain just dialogues. It is up to the tutor to create their own lessons around these dialogues.
a) Library lend the file to other Kindle uses and create a play in the classroom
b) Create listening test questions and use the text-to-speech function on Kindle
c) Create a discussion about some of the phrases used
For ESL tutors, the ideas are endless. As a tutor I've always found dialogues to be useful in vocabulary acquisition, pronunciation practice, confidence building, and more besides. Students regularly comment on how useful the dialogues are and always request more, which is why there are now 6 volumes in the Just Speaking series with more on the way.
