Questions and Quotations on Timeless Topics
for ESL learners and teachers

Downloadable PDF

Our students want to speak better – and more - English. Compelling Conversations, a student-centered textbook, recognizes that desire, and creates a safe place for students to expand their conversation skills. Focusing on 45 timeless topics, the textbook demonstrates how to ask to questions, encourages critical thinking, and provides exceptional examples of authentic, clear communication. The material helps English language learners – and their teachers - share insights, deepen their cultural knowledge, and hold quality conversations in English.

"In sum, Compelling Conversations is a recommended resource for teachers who want to make thier conversation classes more learner-centered... It reflects both authors' considerable professional experience, and would be a notable addition to any English teacher's bookshelf. "
