Making Booklets

Learners can make their own booklets to prepare themselves for real-life conversations or speaking tests. Teachers can provide learners with a booklet template and a conversation with blanks for learners to fill in according to their situation. The booklet is easy to carry and allows learners to practice speaking at home. Not only is this a great review tool for them, but it also alleviates their anxiety when they speak. With the language support given by the booklet, learners will also feel confident about dealing with that particular situation or even with similar tasks in real life.

Even if they are preparing the booklet for a speaking test, this assignment benefits them as they are learning how to review and taking responsibility for their learning, training them to see themselves confidently as legitimate learners.
