Default Re: How to design a lesson for a student whose English level is unknown?

Susan- you are spot on! Great explanations for creating an introductory lesson.

Something I would add- if this student turns out to be advanced, ask them about their life experiences (has she traveled to many countries?) and what sorts of textbooks/materials they've used before- what did they like about those materials and what did they hate? Private students are the best because you can completely structure the lesson to their needs and likes, instead of needing to find that precarious balance that keeps a room of 4-12 people happy.

Good luck!!
