Children and young people love communicating, so it’s just a question of getting them to do it in English! Through practical examples and hands-on activities, this session will look at improving engagement and speaking skills. We will cover the different areas of communication our students need to focus on: listening, speaking and how to successfully bring the two skills together in pairs, small groups and whole classes.
