Survey #4  -  January 18, 2021

Lesson Collection #3 - Lesson 22d
Time: Varies| Level: JHS~Adult| Mode: Pair Work Activity

Getting students to converse with each other in an ESL or EFL classroom is the goal of every teacher. Pairs of students ask each other the 10 questions printed on their worksheets and ask additional follow-up questions for more details. Some of the questions printed on the worksheet include:

Would you live on Mars for three years if you could? Why? Why not?

Would you rather time travel 50 years into the past or 50 years into the future? Why?

What kind of animal do you think you were in your previous life Why?

When you were a child, who was your favorite cartoon, comic or anime character? Why?


The goal of the lesson is for students to ask lots of follow-up questions to gather more information. There are spaces given on the printouts for students to keep notes of their partner's answers.

If time permits, students then change partners. Now they ask their new partner for the answers given by their previous partner. This requires students to shift from first person to third. (You changes to he or she.) They answer the questions according to the notes they kept during the first interview.

Although this is a simple exercise, students become very involved in asking each other questions and having the chance to talk about themselves in English.

What Makes Our Lessons Different?

Teachers Save Time

Reduce lesson planning and gain freedom in the classroom. With all students busy, the teacher can casually roam around the classroom and offer assistance wherever needed.

Students Learn by Doing

Minutes after beginning each lesson, classes often become noisy. At times, very noisy. Why? Students, in pairs or small groups, actively engage in completing the lesson task. They use English to learn English.

Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing

Oral communication is important. Listening and speaking have priority in our lessons; students need to carefully listen to each other. Reading is also important for the success of the lessons. The amount of writing required varies.

Fun for Teachers & Students

We believe students learn better when having fun. Our lessons range from silly to serious but each has a solid task-specific educational goal including grammar usage, vocabulary building and fluency improvement to name a few.

Hi Kurt!,
What a wonderful site you’ve got there, thanks for all the great ideas. I teach high school girls who really dislike studying, but even they manage to get some enjoyment from these lessons.

We EFL teachers need more sites like these.
I integrate your lessons into my syllabus so girls never get bored. For them, English should be entertainment and while most textbooks are short on that, your lessons are not.
Keep up the wonderful work!
