make Ss talk about the learning methods mentioned in the
video. The T may ask like this:
Do you think these ways mentioned in the video are useful?
Do you have any other ways to learn English well?
Step 2 Presentation & Practice

closed while he/she introduces the context of the conversation
they are about to hear like this:
A group of students are at an English club meeting and they are
discussing the best ways to learn English. What questions or ways of
learning English do you think you will hear in this conversation.
Ss may then brainstorm a series of questions or ways of
1learning English and the T can write these on the board.

questions they hear. Then the T present the answer. After Ss
have listened to the recording, they can compare their
predictions to what they actually heard in the conversation.

and ask Ss which of the methods mentioned in 2a and 2b

which method they find most/least effective in learning
English and why.

the Jack’s parts and the other group read Annie’s parts ,

2.What’s the problem?

conversation and make Ss read the conversation carefully and
then answer these questions:
1.What makes Jack feel a little nervous?
2.What’s Jack’s problem when he reads? And what does Annie
suggest?
3.What’s Jack’s problem with words? And what’s Annie’s
advice?
