Thanks @mmekraus! I loved reading how you do 15 minutes of conversation at the beginning of class as I do the same thing! I call it Questions du jour and students have input on the topics we end up talking about. At the end of the year, I organize a Café de Paris event for them to use their conversational skills in an authentic setting. It’s all…Read more
