About This Course

Speaking and listening is assessed all the way through school, and it is the skill students most often say they dread. This course breaks it into manageable parts: listening properly rather than waiting to talk, asking questions that open a conversation, and presenting to a class without your mind going blank.

There are plenty of short exercises to try at home, most of which work just as well over a dinner table as in a classroom.

Suitable for Key Stage 2 and 3.

Requirements

A computer or tablet with an internet connection
