Travel chat

Sarah was the only person to come to the ELC internet cafe today, which made for a relaxing change (things have been very busy recently). When I showed her the range of activities that have been developed up to this point, she chose to do an online discussion about travel. As I've said before, these can seem a bit artificial but they do give you an opportunity to practise some of the features of spoken language in a less pressurised form. You still have an unfolding discussion, but there is more time for you to think about what you want to say and to make changes as you go. Sarah also seemed to like the idea of being able to keep the discussion transcript afterwards - I hope that she has a good look at it and picks up on some of her mistakes....
