Top 100 English Conversation Patterns

The main principle of the La Bonte conversation learning system focuses on the most common 150 conversation patterns used by native speakers. Within an hour, most native speakers use at least 80 of these 150 patterns, many of which are used multiple times. So, why not teach the students to recognize and respond with these conversation patterns.

By focusing a student's energy on identifying and responding to conversation patterns, there is a dramatic increase in their ability to speak effectively in a short amount of time. The teachers role also becomes easier by methodically reviewing and reinforcing these patterns with students, starting with the simplest and moving on to the more complex.

Most feelings in conversation are conveyed unconsciously by native speakers through conversation patterns. The La Bonte approach to learning conversation skills provides students and teachers with a method that is straight forward and helps to instill confidence in students quickly.

Once the student learns that there is a method to learning conversation skills, they become relieved. A students inability to communicate and express themselves clearly can be found in their difficulty to indentify and utilize these very simple conversation patterns while speaking.

It takes about 20 hours to teach a student how to recognize and respond to native speakers using conversation patterns. I offer a helpful teachers guide that highlights this 20 hour process.

I also offer a free oral assessment test that gives you an idea of what the conversation patterns are. You can test your own students to see how well they respond. There is a link to the assessment tool on my home page.
