----- Original Message ----- From: tina - adirship@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: FW: Teaching conversation I usually tutor children. However, I was approached by a young woman who asked me if I could teach her conversation. She is from Argentina, and claims that she has basically no vocabulary . I would have to start right from the beginning and my question is "how"? How do I make a lesson plan for a one hour lesson, just teaching conversation, and with an adult. With children, who are just beginners, I play games, teach them to read and write etc. so there is not a moment boredom in the lesson. Also I was wondering if I should teach her to read and write, to make the lessons a little more interesting, or should I just stick with the conversation like she asked. Your help would be so appreciated.. Any information, lesson plans or names of suitable books would be of great help. Thanking you all in advance, Tina Aharony ----------------------------------------------- ** Etni homepage - http://www.etni.org or - http://www.etni.org.il ** ** for help - ask@xxxxxxxx ** ** to post to this list - etni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** -----------------------------------------------
