Breakout group chatting: (10m)

Today’s topic: Living together before you get married is a good idea.

Let’s take our 10-minute, shall we? Back at 10.

Breakout group chatting: (10m)

Today’s topic: Living together before you get married is a good idea.

chats – opportunity relaxed, natural freeflowing conversation

-may come naturally to you, independent of langauge ability

-may have low spoken skill, BUT make their feeling knows, express themselves

- natural disjointed recursive nature of a conversation

this is not about perfect English

-others are not naturally talkative, taciturn, listeners

-witnesses rather than participants

-shy- fear of social judgement

I do think that it is important to push yourself a bit to speak up in English. Take your opportunities to use the language. 

The people who learn English best are the people who use it everyday in their regular life.

Hopefully you will use the Englishn skills that you have. Hopefully you won’t wait until you think your English is better before you start.

The forest would be quiet if only the best birds sang.
