Spontaneous Speaking offers teachers a wide variety of drama activities, all of which have been designed to maximise student interaction in class. Many different, true-to-life situations are used to generate meaningful communication, increase fluency and build up students' confiden ce.

The activities provide frameworks for interaction but the creative content always comes from the students. And it is the students who generate all the energy, fun and laughter while they use the language they have recently learnt.
