13. Interaction point: As a teacher, you can create a
conversation where you can listen to different
students, for example, introducing themselves and
talking about their hobbies and families by looking at
the other students’s recording. It is a good way to
generate more speaking oppotunities and to maximise
exposure to the language.

different intonation and ask the students to listen
them and try to pronounce them with the correct
intonation.

words which have a little bit similar pronouncation
and ask them to listen and try to repeat them with
correct pronouncation.
