Every week, you will be given a new Speaking Challenge.

A Speaking Challenge is an opportunity for you to use

English outside the classroom.

This week, your Speaking Challenge is to introduce your-

self to a new IELI student who doesn’t speak your lan-

guage. If you are a new student, your challenge is to intro-

duce yourself to a returning student who doesn’t speak 

your language.

Set a time to meet for coffee or lunch so that you can get

to know each other. Talk about the resources that you have

at IELI. Do you know where to go when you are sick?

What should you do if you need help finding an apart-

ment? There are many important resources to discuss.

After your meeting, send Kristen an email

(Kristen.Kershaw@unt.edu) to introduce your new friend!
