Hi,

Do you think the following topics are appropriate for intermediate level:


  • abortion
  • animal rights
  • death penalty
  • euthanasia
I'd like to use these topics in converstion classes. Unfortunately I haven't met the learners yet.


Any help is appreciated

A lot depends on how old the students are, and where they come from. A lot of heat could be generated by some of these topics.

It might be worth trying some less controversial topics first
