Hey all, I'm looking for a good conversation book for a beginner uni/adult class. Any ideas? I'm heading to the bookstore tomorrow to look at some, but I'd love to have some ideas before I go.

How about "Small group discussion topics for Korean students" by Jack Martire?

I've been using Let's Talk by Leo Jones. I find it's great for getting students to speak naturally and express their ideas and opinions. More talk, less boring grammar.

Can someone recommend a discussion/conversation book for elementary and middle school students of low to medium level English?

I highly recommend Tell Me More by Andrew Finch.

Take a look at a copy for evaluation HERE

Biggest tip for that level - use lots of pictures to contextualize the learning...
