English Conversation Questions for Teenagers and Adults

If you’re an English teacher then chances are you’ll appreciate a list of English conversation questions in a big way. They are useful for “free-talking” sessions, private lessons, or for those classes that are focused on conversation or speaking.

1005 English conversation questions

Sure, you can of course come up with conversation questions yourself about whatever topic you’re teaching but that can take some serious time and effort and if you have a lot of classes, far too much mental energy. The other alternative is to find ESL conversation questions online but there are often lots of great ones mixed in with dozens of repetitive or boring ones.

What’s the alternative? A list of 15 interesting and engaging questions about a certain topic. That’s just the right amount to get your students talking and engaging with each other (or with you in private sessions) but not too many that it can be overwhelming or boring.
