How Do We Foster Authentic English Conversations in Large Classes?

A discussion in Teaching English in Indonesia on the SpeakWise Indonesia teacher forum.

We've been thinking about the challenges of engaging every student in large classrooms while ensuring meaningful communication in English. With so many learners at different levels and the influence of L1, it can be tough to encourage authentic conversations. How do you adapt your teaching strategies to create opportunities for real dialogue among your students? We’d love to hear your stories and techniques that have worked for you!
