The Importance of Structured Conversations
Structured conversation topics are vital for enhancing fluency and confidence in speaking English. By focusing on specific subjects during conversation sessions, learners can challenge themselves and step outside their comfort zones. This targeted approach allows students to expand their vocabulary and move beyond their basic functional language skills, which often results in a plateau at the intermediate level. Topics vary each session, and learners are provided with preparation materials to facilitate meaningful discussions.
