500 Grammar Based Conversation Questions

These questions are a great way to get class warmed up with simple yet meaningful exercises. They’re acredible - you can turn them into substantial exercises if you choose by adding your own images, video, or literature. A good support for busy teachers hoping to add rigor to their classes.

I teach an afternoon communicative grammar class and my ESL students absolutely love this book. In fact, they’ll ask me if we can use this book instead of the main textbook that we are kind of forced to use. The grammar introductions are short, wonderfully simple and to the point. The questions that accompany each topic are well-thought-out and perfect for practicing the grammar point. Everyone loves to talk about themselves and my students are no exception. Most questions allow them to express themselves on personal plans, opinions, issues, while using the grammar form in a meaningful way. Using this book is a great way to have interesting and humorous discussions in the classroom, while at the same time getting to know your students better. And of course, it brings students closer too, since they get to share ideas, agree on things, or laugh at them together. I’m so happy I found this book!

Very useful for me as an ESL instructor

I'm an ESL teacher and my ESL 4 students really enjoy this book. The difference with this book is that the questions are designed to use with the grammar lesson on the opposing page. Lots of questions so lots of practice. Good book!

I find this book extremely helpful as I begin to Teach English as a Foreign Language. I can look at my client's errors and easily turn to a page which will help us correct them in our 1-1 videoconferences. I use the conversational method of instruction and don't want to dwell on grammar points but find the clear grammar explanations and examples listed before each list of questions perfect to convey the point. Larry also gives helpful tips for using these questions in a classroom setting.

As a private ESL tutor, I value this book highly. It is very well-suited for the student who is reluctant to start a conversation. My student & I asked & answered each other 85 of the questions during a 150 minute class. Organization of topics could be improved. I have taught hundreds of students for almost ten years, and I wish I could have used this book when I taught classroom as an employee. Now as an independent tutor, this is one of my valued texts. Overall, I highly recommend it.

I like the book. I would have been happier if the difficulty level was addressed. I was looking for this content but I found the simpler questions for lower level students hard to search. Also, don't know why but when I tried to navigate the book, I had a hard time getting to where I was trying to get. I pressed on table of contents and chose a topic was was regularly sent to the wrong page. That is frustrating when I am trying to get specific information. I haven't had this problem with my device on other books so I cannot speculate as to the problem.

Excellent book for making students practice speaking with targeted grammar. Not all encompassing, but it does have a wide variety of topics. Some vocabulary is difficult for beginners. More suited for intermediate and higher students

Gutes Buch, was für die wichtigsten Grammatik-Formen alltägliche Fragen, Ideen, etc. enthält. Werds definitiv in meinen Unterricht einbauen, damit jeder S was sagen kann (zumindest zum Nachbar)..

This book is great on its own or to be used in conjunction with 1000 Conversation Questions (also by Larry Pitts). If you notice a reoccurring grammar error, just flip to that page and you've got some great questions to help firm up that grammar in your student's everyday conversation. A must-have for any ESL teacher. Cassandra - American teacher in Brazil

The package came on-time and the book was in good condition (new). I am using it to help me with English teaching as an EFL teacher in London.

This is an amazing book for ESL teachers. Easy topics and plenty of grammar practice. I use this book in my class. Can be used for different levels of learners. I find this book very useful for upper intermediate , and advance level learners. Teaching grammar has become fun. The learners enjoy the lessons, without going into active grammar.

hi i am teaching everyday private conversation and grammar classes sometimes it is difficult to find time to prepared some classes so this book has given me the opportunity to have an organized class already prepared when i am running out of time and it is really easy to follow. i just got it from amazon and started to use it with my students. Great idea and good value for what i paid. thanks for reading!
