This document provides instructions for a midterm English speaking project at SoongSil University. Students will work in pairs to do a 3-5 minute role play conversation, choosing from several conversation situations: A) Meeting at a social event like a party or cafe, B) Discussing family and sharing photos, C) Waiting at the airport and discussing jobs, or D) Running into an old friend on the street and catching up. They must prepare but not read directly from a script. The goal is to have a natural conversation using language and skills learned during the semester.
