Our learners need a purpose in speaking that goes beyond practicing a grammar point or exchanging information. Problem-solving activities provide four-skill practice in a meaningful context, an opportunity for higher-level thinking, and the motivation to express ideas orally and in writing. Come learn the steps and multilevel aspects of problem-solving techniques and work with ready-made and colleague-generated scenarios to create high-interest lessons for your learners. Multilevel lesson materials provided.
