Unfortunately, there were not any ESL students in attendance at this conversation club meeting. Hilda was very engaging and is excellent at building rapport with her students. Hilda started with two truths and a lie about herself and then we did the same to imitate what the students would be doing. I like this activity and have added it to my TESL arsenal. I will have to think of some better lies to make it more interesting. I think it is important to start off the conversation club with an engaging icebreaker that puts the students at ease. Once they feel comfortable, they will end up participating more. Hilda had a well structured and planned conversation club that would have fostered great conversations.
