Lesson Overview

We are positive that your intermediate ESL students will enjoy this topic for conversation practice! We introduce the topic with a video, we believe that a vocabulary exercise is needed for students to progress. This ESL Social Media Conversation lesson plan starts off with an informative Ted Talk where Dr. Cal Newport explains why he doesn’t use social media. Then, students have to complete a quick vocabulary exercise to make sure they learn new words.

Thereafter, students focus solely on free conversation. They are prompted with multiple discussion questions to ensure they always have something to say. This ESL Social Media Conversation class will give your students an opportunity to express their opinions about their favourite social media platforms as well as the more serious concerns that come with being a social media user.

We believe that it is very important for students to practice their speaking as much as possible. Which is why we have always included multiple speaking exercises in our lesson plans. However, we think that you and your students will love these extra practice lessons!
