Introduction to Topic Talk for Students

Sankei Human Learning Co., based in Shinjuku, Tokyo, has launched an exciting new series called 'Topic Talk for Students', tailored specifically for middle and high school students. This series caters to the growing demand from schools and parents for effective English speaking materials that resonate with younger learners.

What is Topic Talk?

'Topic Talk' is a popular online speaking resource that enables learners to choose conversation topics based on their own interests, thereby enhancing their ability to express themselves in English. Traditionally aimed at working adults, this innovative series now shifts focus to engage younger audiences. The program offers a flexible Q&A format paired with vocabulary support, ensuring students can participate confidently, even if they struggle with English.

Features and Benefits

This series is composed of 20 relatable topics specifically relevant to students, including:
1. School Events
2. Friendships
3. Extracurricular Activities
4. Subjects
5. Family and more!

Additionally, five new topics such as ‘School Trip’ and ‘Post-School Activities’ have been integrated to keep young learners engaged. With this curriculum, students can feel at ease while discussing a range of subjects that are close to their everyday life, fostering both speaking skills and critical thinking.

Designed for Easy Learning

Each lesson is designed with accessibility in mind, allowing students to express their opinions without feeling overwhelmed. Thanks to the Q&A structure, and the inclusion of conversation prompts, even those who find speaking English daunting can thrive. This less intimidating format encourages involvement and motivates learners to explore the language further.

Future Developments

Looking ahead, Sankei Human Learning plans to create more resources focused on beginner students and those who may struggle with English. This is in line with their vision of nurturing not just linguistic abilities but also critical thinking skills in students, making English learning enjoyable and productive.

As English education continues to evolve, initiatives like 'Topic Talk for Students' are key to creating engaging learning environments. By equipping students with practical discussion skills, they are better prepared to appreciate the value and fun of learning English in both school and everyday life.
