Step 5 - Speaking

An interview about hobbies

Work with a classmate. Interview each other about your hobbies and what you do in your free time.

Preparation

  1. Prepare for both roles.
  2. Write down 8-10 questions that you can ask your classmate. Use at least five of them in your interview.
  3. Write down some words and phrases to help you talk about your hobbies and activities.
  4. When answering each question, give some extra information. For example, if your classmate asks you about your hobbies, don’t just list them, but explain what you find so interesting about them.
  5. Practise both your interviews. Switch roles for the second one.

Having the conversations

  1. Find another pair to work with.
  2. Have your two interviews.
  3. Ask your classmates to write down feedback for you.
