Speaking Activities
 
I�ve got a new student who wants to practise her speaking. She has got an intermediate level of English and she just wants to practise conversation so i�m becoming mad trying to find different games and activities for our classes. I want to make lessons interactive as well as funny and interesting. I don�t just want to speak about anything. So I would appreciate any type of advise either on topic or activities to do or in books or materials to have a look at.
How do you design this type of lessons? Do you just talk about anything: weather, the news, her/his private life and so on, or what do you usually do?
Thanks in advance.
