NOTE: This is the second edition. It has more questions than the original and a simplified interior.
This book is packed with more than 1,000 conversation questions spanning 100 topics and is targeted towards intermediate or advanced ESL or EFL students. These questions are great to:
- spark interest in a topic
- practice fluency
- elicit vocabulary
- find common errors
It is designed with one goal in mind, to provide you with a wealth of easy to use conversation questions. This book has a simple design which makes it easy to photocopy or scan. You won't find any branding, cartoons, or excessive decoration on the pages. It also contains a small section on how to best implement conversation questions in your class, in which I share what I have learned through trial and error and hundreds of classroom hours.
This is a book by a teacher for teachers. As an English language teacher I have found that using conversation questions in the classroom is one of the best ways to get students talking. I believe that students should be given as much opportunity as possible to produce English and so I use these questions in my own classroom to foster lively discussions.
I found conversation questions to be so successful in the classroom that I decided to create a resource for my fellow teachers. I sincerely hope you enjoy this book and I believe that it will provide you with lots of value in the years to come.
