Speak Say Talk Tell: strategies and tasks for developing resourceful speakers in the B1 and B2 classroom

This presentation will focus on developing effective speaking strategies in learners in different discourse contexts. With reference to the Cambridge Common Scale of Speaking we will touch upon themes such as active listening, turn-taking, developing discourse, patterns and interaction and spoken register and look at practical classroom tasks and speaking activities that help develop different forms of speaking competence in B1 and B2 learners.

There will be a short welcome and registration to open the seminars and a chance to see materials and talk to the speakers during the breaks between workshops.
