Everyone has something they love to do when class is over, so this is one of the easiest topics for a real, two-way conversation. Your student talks about their hobbies, you share yours, and the English flows naturally from there.

Before you start tutor prep
開始前 · 給老師的兩分鐘準備
This lesson needs zero preparation. Skim it once before the call, then teach straight from the screen. Here is your quick checklist:
這堂課完全不用準備。通話前先看一遍，然後直接照著螢幕上課。以下是你的快速檢查清單：
Open this page in your browser and share your screen, or just keep it on the side.在瀏覽器開啟這一頁並分享螢幕，或就放在旁邊備用。
Test your microphone and the 🔊 buttons — tap one now so you know the sound works.測試你的麥克風和 🔊 按鈕——現在先點一個，確認聲音正常。
Have your camera on. A friendly face helps a shy student relax.打開鏡頭。一張友善的臉能讓害羞的學生放鬆。
Keep a simple chat box open to type new words your student wants to see spelled out.開著一個簡單的聊天視窗，方便打出學生想看到拼法的新單字。
Think of one or two of your own hobbies — you will share too, so the talk feels equal.想一兩個你自己的嗜好——你也要分享，這樣對話才對等。
Mindset: Your job is not to be perfect or to "fix" every mistake. Your job is to get the student talking and to enjoy the conversation with them. If they speak more than you do, the lesson is working.
心法：你的任務不是要完美，也不是「糾正」每個錯誤。你的任務是讓學生開口，並享受和他的對話。只要他說得比你多，這堂課就成功了。
1 · Warm-up 5 min
暖身 · 輕鬆開場
Start gently and with a smile. Ask a few easy questions to warm up the student's ears and mouth before the harder talking begins.
輕鬆又帶著微笑開始。在較難的對話前，先問幾個簡單的問題，暖一暖學生的耳朵和嘴巴。
Hi! How are you today? How was your day?嗨！你今天好嗎？今天過得如何？
What do you like to do after school or after work?放學或下班後你喜歡做什麼？
Do you have any hobbies?你有什麼嗜好嗎？
What did you do last weekend?你上個週末做了什麼？
Are you a busy person, or do you have a lot of free time?你是個忙碌的人，還是有很多空閒時間？
Tip: Let the student answer fully before you move on. Nod, react, and ask one quick follow-up ("Oh, really? Tell me more!") so it feels like a chat, not a test.
小提醒：在換下一題前，讓學生把話說完。點頭、回應，再追問一句（「喔，真的嗎？多說一點！」），這樣感覺像聊天，而不是考試。

🧭 Tutor notes
老師筆記 · 因材施教
A few reminders for getting the most out of this lesson with any level of learner:
給你幾個提醒，讓這堂課對任何程度的學生都發揮最大效果：
BEGINNER 初級
Speak slowly and use short questions. Accept one-word or short answers, then model the full sentence back.放慢速度，用簡短的問題。接受單字或短語回答，再用完整句子示範回去。
Lean on the 🔊 buttons and lots of repetition. Smiles and patience matter most.多用 🔊 按鈕和大量重複。微笑和耐心最重要。
INTERMEDIATE 中級
Push for "why" and examples. Introduce the phrases "I'm into ___" and sequence words.多追問「為什麼」和例子。介紹「I'm into ___」這個句型和順序詞。
Let small mistakes go; recast the sentence correctly instead of stopping the flow.放過小錯誤；把句子正確地重述一遍，而不是打斷他的節奏。
ADVANCED 進階
Use the opinion and "imagine" questions. Challenge them to give detailed, organized answers.用表達意見和「想像」類的問題。挑戰他給出詳細、有條理的答案。
Note one or two natural-sounding upgrades to share at the wrap-up, not mid-flow.記下一兩個更自然的說法，留到收尾時分享，而不是在對話途中打斷。
Most important: This is a conversation, not a lecture. Aim for the student to talk about 70% of the time. If you both leave the call smiling and they spoke a lot, you did a great job.
最重要：這是對話，不是講課。目標是讓學生說大約七成的時間。只要你們都笑著結束通話，而且他說了很多，你就做得很好。
