We're excited to share two fantastic additions to our popular "20 Questions With" interactive series! These engaging activities are perfect for livening up your ESL classroom while helping students practice question forms, listening comprehension, and speaking skills.
What's New
Our latest celebrity interview games feature fun, casual questions and answers that will spark conversation in your classroom. These activities are fully gamified - students choose numbered questions, watch short video clips of interviews, and can practice both understanding and reproducing authentic English conversations.
How It Works
Watch: Play the short video to showcase the question and star’s answer.
Repeat: Replay if needed, then have students echo both Q & A.
Score or Discuss: Hand out points for extra excitement, or skip the scoring for a relaxed group chat.
Flexible Teaching Options
These activities work wonderfully in various classroom settings:
Competitive Game: Divide students into teams and award points for correct repetition
Casual Warm-Up: Use a few questions at the beginning of class to get students talking
Homework Extension: Start in class and ask students to complete at home
Conversation Starters: Use the questions as jumping-off points for personalized discussions
