ESL tutors and teachers frequently talk too much, and I'm as guilty of this as any of you! English learners may struggle to understand us and don't get enough speaking practice when we go on and on. That being said, the ESL tutor or teacher may be the learner's best role model and mentor for English conversation. Through our experience, we know how to talk to a learner much better than the average native speaker they meet, and also better than their fellow English learners. Practical conversation is something most of our clients enjoy, and every tutoring session should include speaking and listening. Your learner may enjoy subject specific conversations.
