How to let your students talk in your class

Post by dearjiajiacheng » Wed Jun 11, 2003 3:12 pm

Hi! I'm a teacher of esl. Recently I took a in-service training, now I'm looking for some materals for my paper which is titled "How to let your students talk in your class". I hope we can have a discussion or I wonder could you give me some ideas about that from your experience of teaching or learning. Thank you in advance! :roll: :roll:

Pair work?

Interesting topics?

Biting your own tongue and allowing the cultural pause to pass before students finally speak?

Calling on students individually instead of expecting them to volunteer?

A lot of this is culture-dependent, and a lot depends on the level of students' English ability.
