Role-play activities can be a lot of fun however a class full of shy students may be reluctant to participate so it is important to know your students. How To Proceed
Role-plays can be immensely time consuming and require some real planning and structure but are generally easy to conduct once started. Students who struggle with English exams may finally get their opportunity to shine while students who generally perform well on exams will be challenged to prove their abilities in another way. Role-plays are less stressful than preparing for exams and enjoyable for both teachers and students. What's your favorite role-play activity that's always a great success with your learners?
