“ The teacher should never use my language in class.”   What do you think?
“ I’d prefer to spend most of the time in class speaking and listening. Reading and writing I can do at home.”   What do you think?
“ I’m afraid of making mistakes when I speak. I’ll probably spend most of the time listening to the teachers and other students.”   What do you think?
“ Talking to other students in English is a waste of time. I want the teacher to talk as much as possible.”   What do you think?
“ Now that I’ve reached this level my grammar is fine. What I need to learn is more vocabulary.”   What do you think?
“ English classes should be entertaining. I want to play games and do fun activities in class. If the classes are boring, the students  don’t learn.”   What do you think?
“ I would like to use email, blogs, wikis and other web applications as much as possible during this course.”   What do you think?
“ I recognise that the amount of English I learn this year will depend on me and the effort I make. To a large extent it’s my responsibility, not the teacher’s.” What do you think?
“ I find reading English really easy. I don’t think it’s very useful for me to spend much time reading.”   What do you think?
“ If I’m not interested in a topic, I’m not going to talk about it.”   What do you think?
“ I’m afraid of making mistakes when I speak. I’ll probably spend most of the time listening to the teachers and other students.”   What do you think?
“ I think it’s difficult for most students at this level to see their progress. At lower levels it’s much easier for a student to feel that they’re making progress.”   What do you think?
“ I’m going to try to come to all the classes, but I haven’t really got time to do anything at home. This should be enough to pass the course.”   What do you think?
