Bring to the conversationBring your curriculum focus, starting level, timetable and the speaking task you want to work toward.
Explore clear instruction, classroom presentation, speaking tasks and feedback that students can act on. Scope the workshop around the team’s priorities.
Bring to the conversationBring the team’s priorities, approximate participant count and a classroom situation you want to explore.
Scope, delivery, fees and availability are confirmed in conversation.
What the practice develops
Progress you can put into practice.
01
A clear purpose for each task
Connect speaking practice to what students should communicate, who they are addressing and why.
02
A repeatable practice structure
Use a cycle of planning, speaking, listening and refining that teachers and learners can understand.
03
Feedback with a next action
Define observable speaking choices and discuss how teachers will notice progress. Agree reporting needs before the program.
Try a speaking prompt
Explain it to a younger student
Choose one idea from today’s lesson. How would you explain it to someone encountering it for the first time?
Try it aloud, then choose one thing to make clearer.
Say the main idea in one sentence.
Use a familiar example or comparison.
Ask the listener what is still unclear, then try again.
Before you decide
A few useful answers.
Can the content fit our curriculum? +
Share the age group, language level, curriculum focus and desired speaking outcome. Kai can discuss a suitable sequence instead of assuming a fixed package.
Can you support teachers as well as students? +
Teacher workshops can focus on classroom communication, modelling a task and making feedback useful. Confirm the objectives, participants and format directly with Kai.
What should our school prepare? +
Agree the timetable, group size, room or online setup, staff responsibilities and learning materials. Share your safeguarding and supervision requirements before a booking is confirmed.
Will student work be published? +
Public sharing is separate from participating in a lesson. Any proposed use of identifiable student images, recordings or stories needs appropriate permission; discuss your school’s requirements with Kai.
Talk through the fit
Bring the goal. We’ll start there.
Share the student age range, approximate group size, learning goal, preferred dates and delivery format. A first inquiry does not need student names or individual records.
