How to play the Advice Game.

I got this game idea from http://www.afn.org/~afn49566/page3.htm. It's best played with a group with intermediate to advanced ESL conversational skills.

  1. Write down real life situations that require some advice on index cards. For example, "I am very depressed. No matter what I try, nothing seems to make me happy."
  2. Put these cards on the table and ask a participatn to choose one. The participant reads the problem aloud.
  3. The others offer advice.
  4. The reader then chooses the best advice and gives the card to that participant.
  5. At the end of the hour, the person with the most cards wins.
