How's it going? Have you struck up a conversation with a stranger in pubic yet? I hope so! Please leave a comment here when you achieve this goal.
Here are some lessons and ways to practice to get ready.
Randall's Listening Lab has a lesson on small talk HERE.
Here's a good video about small talk.
Please practice small talk this week when you are in public.
You can compliment someone on a pretty blouse or nice watch.
You can admire a beautiful baby.
You can ask a dog owner about his/her dog.
You can comment upon the weather.
You can ask, "Are you following the World Cup?" "Which team are you rooting for?"
Please leave a comment after you do the lesson.
Cheers!
My teacher Kelly, good night!
ReplyDeleteI already read the lessons:Summer English Practice #1, #2, #3 and #4. These are useful practices.
Due to do much housework during beginning days of the summer holiday, I was not able to speak and listen these sentence. After some days I shall be able to go outside to practice the content.
I think if we study teacher's lessons ,we can get a big progress.
I like these teachings.
Thank you very much!
Good luck!
I am Miaojuan. I think a lesson per week is better for our senior in summer.
Miaojuan, Thank you for leaving a comment. I'm happy to hear that you plan to practice out in public later. Let me know how it goes! K
