In this ongoing 4-week group course, students will engage in conversation with one another and the teacher.  I will prepare topics ahead of time for students to discuss during class like things they're grateful for, favorite vacation spots, favorite hobbies, and more!  Students will have plenty of opportunities to participate in the games and discussions.  The purpose of this class is to provide students with a chance to practice their conversation and listening skills.  Students will be encouraged to participate in discussions.  At the end of each class, we will play a game!

Important to note:  if only 1 learner enrolls, I will still teach the class.  The conversation in this case will occur between teacher and student.

My teaching style is fun and organized in that I like to keep structure in my classes while engaging students in a fun manner.  The basic structure will be sharing something fun they did that week when we start class, participating in a discussion, and playing a game to promote conversation.  I look forward to meeting your student!  

Here is the breakdown of the schedule:
Week 1, Class 1:  Introductions, class rules/expectations. Students take turns sharing 3 favorite hobbies.  Then, we will play a "Would You Rather" game where students are given 2 hypothetical options (sometimes hilarious options) of which they have to choose one they would rather do (i.e., "eat ice cream that tastes like broccoli or eat broccoli that tastes like ice cream").  We may also play a Baamboozle game (baamboozle.com/games) that promotes conversation!
