An example of chatting
Teacher: I have a problem and I need your advice.
Ss: Why? What’s the matter?
Teacher: It’s my nephew’s birthday next Saturday and I don’t know what present to give him.
Ss: How old is your nephew?
Teacher: 15.
Ss: What does he like doing?/ What’s his hobby?/What is he fond of?
Teacher: He likes watching films.
Ss: Buy him a DVD.
Teacher: He doesn’t have a DVD player.
Ss: Buy one for him.
Teacher: I don’t have that much money. But you know what? I’ll buy a DVD for his computer. Can you recommend a film that a 15-year old boy may
like? Etc.
Summary
Summarise the session by saying that there are plenty of opportunities for using English in lessons – from simple instructions to communicating with students in English; if a teacher uses English for communication, students understand that they should respond in English too; the more you use English in class the more chance you give your students to develop their own English.
