Long turn

9–Higher Ed · World languages · Practice speaking

What students see

Talk about your favorite place to shop: where it is, how you get there, what you usually buy, who you go with, and what you like and dislike about it. Speak for two minutes.

Why it works

Two minutes without a partner mirrors the long-turn task in many speaking exams and builds stamina for sustained speech.

How to run it

  1. Add it to your Space. The Topic comes with this prompt and these settings, and you can edit both.
  2. Share the Topic link with your students.
  3. Approve posts as they come in. Until then only the person who posted and Space admins can see them.

Make it yours

Change the topic to match the exam your students are preparing for, and give them a minute to plan first.
