Hi there! 👨🏻‍🏫

Do you enjoy reading for pleasure?

This conversation lesson, based on an article from Mental Floss, gives students the chance to discuss this question while learning about some of the potential benefits of reading according to scientific evidence -- which might, hopefully, encourage those not so fond of reading to pick up a book and start reading right away!

In this lesson, students get plenty of speaking and reading practice while also exploring idioms that include the verb "read."
