My last tutoring session with my Brazilian students was a fun one. We played 20 questions. I gave each student a noun (person, thing or place). The other tutees had to ask the student yes or no questions. The other two students had to alternate questions. The goal of the game is to figure out what word the person got with the least amount of questions. Students loved this game because I would assign them really funny words and people. For example I assigned one of my students to be King Kong, we all couldn't stop laughing at that one.
I chose this game because my tutees are lower level speakers and listeners. They need to work on just speaking and listening. This was a fun assignment for students to both speak and ask questions. I would correct students whenever they made a grammar mistake. Since I speak a little bit of Portuguese students would ask how to say a Portuguese word in English. This lesson absolutely benefited the students.
