How do you we get our intermediate English language learners to speak more in our classes?

These questions inspired Compelling American Conversations: Questions and Quotations for Intermediate American English Language Learners. Since 2012, the versatile speaking skills textbook has found its way into several English as a Second Language and English language development classrooms. Words can often have multiple meanings, and the term “intermediate English language learner” is no exception. Compelling American Conversations was written with this recognition to offer various ways of helping English students develop and deepen their conversation skills.

This Teacher’s Guide will help English teachers – and tutors – working in adult education programs, community colleges, Intensive English Programs, literacy centers, and international student American Conversations helps English language learners feel more comfortable in English. It will also help your students become more fluent in English. This teacher’s guide provides detailed suggestions on how to effectively teach each lesson, anticipate “good mistakes” from students, and provide feedback. It also includes several new activities for each chapters so you can extend the lessons, adapt to both stronger and weaker students, and add explicit pronunciation and vocabulary training. We have also deployed the Common European Framework of References (CEFR) for each lesson to clearly identify specific teaching objectives in each lesson. In addition to an activity by activity teaching tip for the entire 15 chapters, this teacher’s guide includes many supplemental activities such as:Sound Practice - Accent reduction activities and minimal pair practiceGrammar Connection – Activity that focuses on how words and sentences work in a conversation context of each thematic chapter.
